As a Kent resident I am very concerned at the amount of development of all kinds, and as a result of that, the amount of destruction of wildlife and nature that takes place. Wildlife is vital to all of us, and this has been proven throughout the last year where people have found solace in getting into nature. Our country is severely nature depleted and we should be doing all we can to protect what we already have and increase places for wildlife in the hope that nature can begin to recover. The Swanscombe peninsula supports a wide range of wildlife, in a number of habitats, which has been recognised by Natural England who have designated it as a SSSI. With this in mind I feel that it would be inappropriate to continue with proposal to develop the area for the London Resort. Please consider very carefully what would happen if the London Resort is allowed to go ahead...to destroy such an important site gives out all the wrong signals. The variety of wildlife from insects to birds is priceless, utterly priceless... We need more wildlife, which will benefit all of us and the environment, not more theme parks.
