Labourโ€™s great nature sellout is the worst attack on Englandโ€™s ecosystems Iโ€™ve seen in my lifetime | George Monbiot The horrifying planning bill, which rips up environmental protections, was drafted with CEOs in mind. We know because Keir Starmer told us, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

This is a nightmare scenario. Developers and corporations can now basically destroy as much habitat as they'd like as long as they pay fees to offset that destruction. No actual offsetting required (not that that is an acceptable remedy). Just fees.
