    The recent conflict in Ukraine and climate change has had a major impact on food imports to the UK and has emphasised our need for food independence. At the time of such emphasis it seems wrong on... Read more

    The main objections I have to the Solar Project in the West Burton area is the fact that it will destroy the beautiful Lincolnshire landscapes making it an eyesore rather than a delight to the eye; it... Read more

  • Lorraine Broadbent

    This area is part of a much larger area where solar panels have been proposed and I think they should all be considered together. Not just in our area and not just in Lincolnshire but in the whole... Read more
