It is disappointing that the Government is ignoring correspondence on the issue and seemingly has no plan to return the training camp to its intended use.

"Crowborough is one of several thriving towns in my constituency and there is an overwhelming sense of community spirit.

I have published a copy of my letter to the new Secretary of State, Wes Streeting, as I want to be absolutely transparent about my ongoing campaigning against the  decision taken by the government.
