Labour’s ‘blinkered drive to build could push nature to point of no return’ (www.independent.co.uk)

The government’s “blinkered” drive for development could speed up nature loss to the point of no return, top conservation campaigners are warning at the 11th hour before a new law is passed.

The RSPB and Wildlife Trusts say Labour’s efforts to speed up building projects will prove disastrous for wildlife, habitats and green spaces – and could mean the greater use of chemicals.

The organisations are pulling out all the stops to try to have the most “destructive” parts of the Planning and Infrastructure Bill amended in its final stages in the Lords.
