WE read (Evening News October 31) that the project to transform the old Cattle Street hospital "hinges on Advantage West Midlands completing a deal to buy the Castle Street site..."

I would ask if there is anyone who could please explain to me how can AWM complete such a deal.

It is not an elected body, represents no one and is nothing more than a government quango set up to assist in the breaking up of the country into regions.

It has neither statute nor authority and could be disbanded tomorrow. Is this a back door attempt to give it status?

Is it not time this country was woken up and made aware of the covert and underhand operations of New Labour to force regionalisation upon us and thence a federal state of Europe.

Can no one change "shhh" into "shout" before it is too late?
