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.
As I said elsewhere, these endless consultations are a known blocking tactic. Nimby campaigners demand endless consultations but they are clearly acting in bad faith: they only accept the results when they agree with the nimby demands to build nothing. We have seen this over and over again. It is a big part of the reason we have a housing crisis and a stagnant economy. It’s scandalous that the Greens are now using their parliamentary platform to continue to act how they have in local government: blocking necessary green development.
