I am picking up a whiff of exaggeration.

Craig Tracey, Bedworth's MP, is giving his support to a charity supporting mining communities. The charity seems to have helped a hell of a lot of people for such an obscure organisation (or is it huge, and I've just been living in a cave?): http://www.nuneaton-news.co.uk/MP-shows-support-mining-organisation/story-28127609-detail/story.html

Can the area really afford to turn down nearly 700 jobs? This strikes me as NIMBYism. Mind you, if I lived out that way I wouldn't really want such a development on my doorstep. But sometimes we need to look at the bigger picture...

I think we must consider just who is pulling his strings?

The future of Daw Mill Colliery has been discussed by the local Conservative candidate for the general election, but will no doubt be forgotten by whoever gets voted in: http://www.nuneaton-news.co.uk/Meeting-held-discuss-plans-colliery/story-26396692-detail/story.html

It's the same everywhere. I recently came across a new acronym: BANANAS - Build Absolutely Nothing Anywhere.

Strikes me as a little bit of nimbyism. The area desperately needs jobs, if the old Daw Mill site can provide them then it ought be used for the greater good.

I was really surprised when I read the article. Closed collieries and their communities are usually left to rot for decades before someone decides to do something with them.
