And while the Greens are doing what they do best (opposing green development), the Labour government has already lifted the Tory ban on onshore windfarms.
This is odd, because Labour are the same as the Tories, as we all know, and the Greens are a radical new force. But in this case, Labour are doing the direct opposite of the Tories, while the Greens are doing the same things the Tories did! Most curious.
EDIT: Here’s the official government statement confirming this.
EDIT 2: And this isn’t all! Rachel Reeves is also planning to do more to make onshore wind simpler to build.
Sewage dumping in the rivers and shores next please
Water boards already get fined for this. The problem is that paying the fine is cheaper than paying to fix the massively outdated infrastructure.
The only way to make the bastards responsible stop is jail time. The companies and the people who run them have more than enough money to pay the fines.
Renationalise them. Zero compensation. They’ve already sucked it dry of profits over the last 35 years, so I figure what’s left is ours.
I’m paying nearly £700 a year to have my shit put in the river, and I have no choice in what company it goes to. That’s not how privatisation should work. I’m basically a fucking serf.
