Sorry, cant bear these unintelligible comments about Labour policy and benefitting the few. They are so uninformed and frankly callous. How dare the Labour Party councillors propose to bury people. Clearly selfish and for their own ends. What utter c**p.

I wont make equally uninformed comments about whether people have ever experienced loss but it does seem that they write from an abstract position on death rather than contemplate the experience of those who grieve loved ones.

In just over a week a dear friend of over 20 years will be buried in one of these cemetaries. He lived locally and died in his early 50s leaving a young son. Much too young and a terrible tragedy. Im pleased that his son will be able to visit his fathers grave before going to play football with his friends or for a walk with his mother. It makes it all the more matter of fact somehow, something that that little boy will need for many years to come.

There are children buried in these cemetaries, and as a regular visitor Ive seen parents come to sit at their childs graveside. Some cry, some talk to their children.

Hopefully Im far off having a need for burial myself but for my children Im glad that they have walked through cemetaries asking questions and have been able to make sense of life and death and the bits inbetween. Lets not remove a valuable life learning experience from our children by turfing out our deceased beyond the M25.
