WITH the possibility of development at Coate it is not surprising the Greens are standing in South Swindon. But for Bill Hughes the issue is much wider than just Coate. "There should be no more expansion on green field sites," he says. "They should use sites that are available in the existing built-up area. There is no need to build on green fields whether it is at Coate, South Marston or anywhere else."

Mr Hughes has contested every council election in Swindon since 1984 but has not stood for parliament since 1992.

"There was a big surge in support in the 1980s then it faded away," he says. "We are trying to pick ourselves up again now. "There is a bit of disillusionment with the main parties on things like Iraq and there is concern about development issues. "I think we should take votes from all the main parties."
