I strongly object to the Lower Thames Crossing presently under consideration. These enormously expensive - did I read possibly £5 billion ? - and highly destructive infrastructure projects must be stopped because of the damage they do not only to the global environment but also to the local flora and fauna; we've already been told that the U.K. is one of the worst countries in Europe from the perspective of irreversible damage to the wildlife in our country and building more, bigger roads has long been shown to just result in more traffic and more pollution.
