Slipway on the @meabc.bsky.social Council owned beach at Greenisland that was built without permission for launching boats. However this slipway creates a significant pinch point at mid and high tide, preventing people from getting along the beach at a place where there are no safe access/egress points for the general public (without trespassing). The Council tolerate Loughside residents using the beach as their private playground, while refusing to restore public access that was removed progressively from the 1990s in breach of their statutory duties to preserve rights of way, and in violation of the Access to the Countryside Order 1983. See you in court!

While denying access to unwashed ratepayers of #Greenisland, Loughside residents can build huge pinch-point slipways without formal approval, and moor and launch their boats on the council-owned beach, contrary to the supposed findings of the H&S report. @belfasttelegraph.co.uk #OneLawForThem
