  • He is opposed to a policy which has already been thoroughly consulted on.

    Wrong, I’m afraid it wasn’t. national grid consultation

    It seems like the pressure is working, because they agreed that the initial assessment wasn’t enough: “We are also consulting on the preliminary findings from our environmental studies and assessments as well as proposed mitigation for any potential impacts to the local environment, including animal habitats and the local landscape.”

    In any case the local campaigners want more scrutiny and consultation from a third party. Which is their right if we like it or not.


  • What are you on about? This is not a policy by the greens, but one MP. Ramsay said ‘…110 miles of cabling using 50m high pylons will “destroy our historic landscapes and will require huge loss of trees”.’ An MP who cares about his constituence!? The horror!!

    He suggested that they should do a thorough analysis and consultation before going forward. Maybe the silicon valley mantra of ‘move fast and break things’ shouldn’t be applied to our green future policies.
