Make no mistake, this is a centralising Govt taking power&decision making away from people
And these shambolic amendments to #PlanningBill, tabled last minute, build on months of lies from #RachelReeves pathetically scapegoating nature for a struggling economy..

Very well put Tony
The #ClimateCrisis is obviously a huge threat to people, our economy, our security, our food production and our water supply...
And also one of the greatest threats to #nature
Any party that seeks to deny or dismiss climate science, is not fit for Govt

Did you see our Chief Executive @craigbennett3.bsky.social on @channel4news.bsky.social speaking about a critical risk facing nature?
UK Government promised to protect nature β but new changes to the planning system threaten to do the opposite. More > buff.ly/3jTsoyL

Yet again, #DowningSt shows itself to be trapped in a misinformation and disinformation bubble when it comes to nature laws.
