Shoebury Common Flood Defences

It was interesting to see former Southchurch Independent Party candidate Claire Bibby use her occasional posting on her blog this week to criticise me and my fellow ward colleagues for wanting to protect residents against the real threat of costal flooding.

In a previous post on the subject, Claire has appallingly compared the proposed embankment to people escaping communism in East Germany via the Berlin Wall to protecting homes and lives from flooding at Shoebury Common.

If she agrees with the authors of the leaflet who believe that there isn't a flood risk at Shoebury Common, I challenge Claire to sign an indemnity to that effect. Considering that her party colleagues in Shoeburyness and Thorpe wards are in complete agreement with the proposed sea defences, will she also be urging residents to vote them out of office at the next opportunity?
