Barnet Council out of touch and living in Ivory Towers? - Whalebone Park latest

Do Barnet Council's PR department read the local blogs? If they don't maybe they should. I was amazed to see the following Tweet from the Council yesterday.

This month's hidden gem in Barnet First is this set of jaw bones at Whalebones Park! Send us yours for our next edition in June! pic.twitter.com/Pddf6vToUh

Why was this so extraordinary? Well they clearly haven't read about the proposal to redevelop Whalebones park which is the second most viewed blog on this site in the last month. Wh ilst we totally agree with the council that this is a treasure of our Borough, we are amazed that the Council makes no mention of the plan and the need to defend our greenspaces.We have a facebook page to help pull the campaign together, please join.

This is the best way to help defend  this amazing local gem, one which the council recognises but is seeking to pawn.
