West Suffolk
Stop Forest City — West Suffolk
A devastating proposal to build a city of one million people in the heart of West Suffolk — destroying ancient villages, irreplaceable countryside, and the community we cherish. If you would like to get involved in this campaign, please email Nick@Nicktimothy.com
The Facts
Why We Must Stop Forest City
The so-called "Forest City" is not a green utopia. Nick Timothy MP discovered that the plans have a £175 billion black hole. It is a threat to everything that makes West Suffolk special.
Destruction of Countryside
Vast tracts of irreplaceable Suffolk countryside — ancient hedgerows, woodlands, and farmland — would be obliterated to make way for concrete and tarmac.
Ancient Villages Erased
Historic communities like Cowlinge, Great Thurlow, and Withersfield face being swallowed whole by this ludicrous scheme.
Heritage Under Threat
Centuries of English rural heritage, listed buildings, and archaeological sites would be lost in a single act of devastation.
Built to Serve Cambridge
The proposal aims to house one million residents — yet Cambridge itself has only 150,000. The scale is completely disproportionate and unsustainable.
£175 billion black hole
The financial model is unviable, there is no plan for vital infrastructure, and the public is exposed to a £175 billion risk.
Infrastructure Chaos
Roads, schools, hospitals, and water supply are already under strain. A million-person city would cause decades of disruption, noise and lorry traffic.
The Threat Zone
Villages Under Threat
The proposed Forest City would engulf historic communities across West Suffolk.
The Campaign
Standing up for West Suffolk
We are fighting for West Suffolk against Forest City, standing up for the homes, farmland, and way of life that make West Suffolk special.
"This is productive farmland, essential to our food security. It is irreplaceable countryside. It is the heart of British horseracing. No business case – even if it is slickly presented and couched in high-minded rhetoric – can justify destroying our homes and way of life."
