Christopher Pennel, chairman of the Peak Park committee that has been forcing through the closure of byways to recreational motorists has been forced to apologise for not declaring an interest.

He is a leading member and financial supporter of the group Friends of the Peak Distrrict which has campaigned for the closure of these routes.

Democracy and fair play at its best.

Well , that never happens, person of money and influence uses public authority to enforce their whims.
What doesn't happen very often is that they apologise! Of course all the decisions taken at his behest will be reviewed and possibly revoked, I don't think.

What are recreational motorists? Are they like toad in wind in the willows, or Sunday drivers? I suppose I would be in favour of banning any of thoses types from driving anywhere.
