The ethos of this proposal is in accordance with the rights enshrined in our Constitution. Those misguided people who would herd us into larger urban centres if they had their way need to think again. They need to look at the history and fabric of our society and recall that within the last 100 years this country had double its current population residing in rural areas. The attractiveness of the rural landscape has not been, nor will it be, diminished. This is not a bad thing because it means the fabric of our society can be protected and enhanced.
