Petition

We the undersigned want a new stadium for Bristol not a 'village green'. We call on Bristol City Council to do eveything in its power to do what is right for the whole city of Bristol, and we fully support the Council in its efforts to make the stadium happen by rejecting the village green application.

Background information

Plans for a new world-class stadium for Bristol are under threat from attempts to classify the proposed site as a village green.
This would mean that the stadium cannot be built.
It would mean that Bristol would lose out on the opportunity to host World Cup football. It would spell the end for the ambitious plans to develop the whole surrounding area.
Thousands of jobs would be lost for local people.
Bristol businesses would lose out on millions of £s.
The majority of people in Bristol would lose out.

Bristol City Council will make the final decision. They need to know that you and everyone else in the city wants a new stadium not a village green. Please let them know that you're behind them!
