Both Karl McCartney and the Lincoln Racecourse Regeneration Company are determine to have their own way in their use of the West Common.

my neighbour who reads the guardian told me to read the newspaper on line as Kark McCartney was mentioned by a columnist.
this is what i found:-

Guardian Diary 3 August 2010

"A good time for the recess because, for now, there doesn't seem to be anything else that the newbie Tory MP Karl McCartney can do to alienate his increasingly restless constituents. Certainly the early days have been impressive. He, you will recall, is the very public backer of an attempt to bring horse-racing back to Lincoln with a potential site on the town's West Common, a concept that has a substantial number of Lincolnites rising up in opposition. Oh, and he is also a director of the company behind the scheme. "It says a lot that Labour councillors and anti brigade try to judge everyone's motives by their own standards and twisted hate-filled republican logic," he tweeted. Strong meat, which he later felt obliged to tone down on being taken to task by the Lincolnshire Echo. But then it's been a tiring session. Rest now, Karl. Try to get some sleep."
