MP says draft law will let developers ‘pay cash to trash’ habitats and urges colleagues to back his amendments
Keir Starmer’s planning bill will “push the public towards Reform”, a Labour MP has said as he urges his colleagues to back amendments to the legislation.
Chris Hinchliff, MP for North East Hertfordshire, has submitted a package of amendments to the bill, which as it stands, lets developers “pay cash to trash nature”, he said. These will be debated in parliament during the report stage in early June.
