Turnden JR: disappointing result but we'll always fight for our countryside
CPRE Kent is working to enhance, promote and protect Kent's countryside. Love Kent's beautiful rural areas? Find out more and get involved.
@cprekent.bsky.social's legal challenge over Turnden was disappointingly dismissed, but it brought a key legal clarification: decision-makers now have a stronger duty to actively protect & enhance England’s National Landscapes.
Thanks to everyone who backed the case. Your support means everything.

Once again we have headlines about the loss of a crucial natural asset, with news of an ancient oak felled in Enfield
A Tree Council report is now calling for a taskforce to save our ancient trees

Planning bill ‘throws environmental protection to the wind’, say UK nature chiefs
Heads of 32 charities warn proposals could push species towards extinction and lead to irreversible habitat loss
🧵Planning reform that speeds up sustainable development *and* restores nature is worth fighting for. The #PlanningBill is currently one sided, weakening nature laws with scant benefit for biodiversity. But Ministers could get back on track for a win-win.

The Planning Bill is not the win-win for nature & building we were promised 🚨
If the Bill proceeds unchanged, it will break new ground in the destruction of nature across England 🥀

‘This lifts a dark veil which has hung over us for more than a decade’
Businesses on a site earmarked for a £2.5bn theme park say a ‘dark veil has been lifted’ as a key planning status is dropped from the site.
Good news for the Swanscombe peninsula! Baffling that the London Resort scheme was ever granted NSIP status in the 1st place, so....after much campaigning by many...we welcome the fact it’s not now a threat. However, the battle for this special place goes on!
