Why bother opposing mobile phone masts?
Because occasionally, just occasionally, the mobile phone companies can be made to change their minds.
The Evening Post reports how O2 has decided not to go ahead with a mast overlooking a school playground in Winterbourne, after a meeting chaired by Steve Webb MP.
But O2 says that it didn't change its mind because of the protests - it's just that they "found a better site". (The phrase "Pull the other one" comes to mind...)
I am delighted for all who would have been affected by the original mast siting proposal. Many congratulations to all who have fought so hard to get 02 to review it's decision - a just reward for everyone concerned!
