<P><FONT size=2><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>Sheffield is
about to host a G8 conference in an effort to raise its profile but at what cost
to its own people? In some bizare 21st anniversary of 1984 and hot on the heels
of the new series of Big Brother, Sheffield is prepared to subject its citizens
to intrusion and exclusion. The 'City Fathers' ought to know that Sheffield is
already a fabulous city and who hasn't already heard of Sheffield steel, Pulp or
the Cruicible Theatre ! </FONT></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Notwithstanding my
dislike for the money hungry, war mongering and environment destroying G8
nations I also object to our city hosting this event because of the over the top
intrusion into the lives of us Sheffield folk. Talk of 'no go zones' in the city
and 'out of bounds area's ' are rife with no one really knowing or willing to
say what the effects of these restrictions will be. People having to get permits
to walk up their own street, resdents being asked who resides at their address,
a Lyceum production (rumoured) called off and trams not running while the great
and good dine at our expense in the Cutlers Hall. </FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Is raising Sheffield's
profile worth all this? Why hasn't the council discussed with the people of
Sheffield to see if we are prepared to stand for this amount of intrusion?
Surely the Prime Ministers country residence is a more suitable and less
disruptive venue than Nether Edge, a built up leafy suberb close to the busy
city centre. Our city council always manages to surprise me with its crass
stupidity and it's couldn't care less for its people attitude. They should all
resign now or better still fall of their swords.........made of Sheffield steel
of course. </FONT></SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>I wish to make my unhappiness
about the G8 conference to be held in Sheffield during June 2005. Apart from the
fact that like alot of people I strongly object to the activities of G8 and what
they stand for I also have serious problems with the impact upon local people.
People having to get permits to get to their own homes!!!, a performance at the
Lyceum cancelled!!!, trams shut down!!!! (how will I get to work?) ....its a
disgrace and shows how little regard the MP's of Sheffield and the city council
have for its citizens. How can you allow your home town people (Richard) be
treated like this. It stinks. I dont supppose you care, after all during the
recent elections I never saw you or so much of</FONT><FONT face=Arial></FONT>
<FONT face=Arial>a canvasser ...maybe you took my vote for granted, well you
didnt get IT! Come to think about it I live in the city centre and can't
remember the last time I saw you. Shffield should be ashamed for allowing its
citizens to be treated like this and you should resign. I will be protesting
like many and hope tens of thousands show you and your cronies exactly what we
think of G</FONT><FONT face=Arial>8</FONT><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2>. I am almost tempted to vote G4 and they are as equally as
appaling as your crew. I hope we bring the city to a peaceful but emphatic
standstill!<BR></FONT></SPAN><BR><SPAN lang=en-gb><FONT size=2><FONT
