IT is completely unacceptable for the Ministry of Defence (MoD) not to consult with local people over the future of the Sea Mounting Centre at Marchwood.
I support the efforts being made to make them change their minds, including questions being asked in the House of Commons and a petition put together by the local county councillor, David Harrison.
The MoD must listen to local people and understand that this is an opportunity where the outcome should be better for all concerned.
The petition can be found at epetitions.direct.gov.uk
