I have spent some lovely family holidays in Scarborough at both North and South Bay.. if Keane Duncan for Mayor can deliver this, this would be great for the town. It’s a massive aspiration…🤷‍♀️ #MayoralElection2024 #yorkmayor #yorkandnorthyorkshire

We, like many farms, are unlikely to have a good harvest, if one at all. On top of that, we have the added, unnecessary worry of a solar appeal which seeks to take almost half our BMV farmland.Just how much are we expected to deal with? Steve Barclay

So good to see drilled fields. Just need that dark cloud to shift and some persistant good weather over the next 2 weeks. Next year will be different again…we have to take the good years with the bad. As my father in law always used to say, ‘it always come right in the end gal’.

We need action now before there are no family farms left.. just lots of very wealthy landowners/ estates and fields of glass… Rishi Sunak Defra UK National Farmers' Union The Countryside Charity North East TFA #uksolaralliance House of Lords Land Use Committee Kevin Hollinrake MP James Gray MP Sir Edward Leigh MP Andrew Bowie MP

Landowners cover countryside with solar panels in ‘sunrush’The surge is being driven by cheaper technology, carbon targets and the return of government subsidies

Well said Sir Edward Leigh MP. Please also remember the impact on TFA who are having the rug pulled from beneath them for solar. I’ve been banging on about this for 4 years. We need action now. Ban all solar application on best and most versatile farmland. Kevin Hollinrake MP

This is madness.
'In Oxfordshire, the proposed Botley West Solar Farm, Europe’s biggest of its kind, involves 3,200 acres of the county’s countryside, three quarters of it in the green belt and nearly half of it the best agricultural land.
Those fields are to be smothered by 2.2…

This afternoon I spoke in a debate against large scale ground mounted solar installations that threaten our food security. Solar is inefficient land use and should be on roofs. We need to look to SMRs and off shore wind for energy security.
