Please, Mr Prescott, listen to the people and approve Albion's plans for Falmer without any further delay.

More than two-thirds of voters in the city said Yes to Falmer in the referendum and 61,000 signed the pro-stadium petition before Brighton and Hove councillors backed it by 11 votes to one in June 2002.

The Prime Minister has made much of his big conversation with voters.

The people of Sussex and beyond are telling him and his deputy: Ignore Norman Baker and his few nimby cronies. We want Falmer - now.
