"ANGRY residents slammed the new format for council forums last night, arguing it puts a stop to open discussion.
"Dozens of people turned out to Friern Barnet residents’ forum to discuss important local issues, but left feeling disappointed, saying too many rules stood in their way.
"Irritation swept the floor, as residents were told they could not discuss their traffic concerns, relating to plans for a major waste plant in Bounds Green.
"The Pinkham Way proposals could see Europe's largest waste plant built on their doorsteps, but the council’s business governance officer said questions should be submitted to the planning and environment sub-committee."
