Lib Dems fight to protect our green spaces

The Government’s current planning policies treat your back garden as a “brownfield site” - like an old industrial site - which means they are vulnerable to infill development.

“Liberal Democrats believe back gardens serve an important social and environmental purpose,” says Tom Brake MP. “The Lib Dems have published a Bill in Parliament calling on the Government to protect back gardens and parkland from over-development. These local green spaces should be treated as the important “greenfield” sites they really are - not as old industrial sites as the Conservative and Labour Governments have labelled them.”

You can help tell the Government that you want your back garden protected, by supporting the Lib Dem Hands off our Back Gardens petition.

We, the undersigned, support the Liberal Democrat campaign to stop back gardens being treated as industrial brownfield sites by Conservative and Labour Governments. These local green spaces are important social and ecological green corridors that should be protected from being sold off to developers.
