@UKLabour @Keir_Starmer Land designated green belt only covers 12.6% of England and current planning guidance already allows building, especially affordable housing, on brownfield land in them like car parks, derelict sites etc.. These are the purposes of green belts:-
Green belt land has helped protect the UK from urban sprawl for more than 60 years. We believe this land has immense unfulfilled potential to help restore nature and help cities and towns adapt to a changing climate. (3/4)

Good. She won't receive a lot of public recognition for this, but our hedgerows are now better protected both now and in the future in large part due to one lady called @JanetHughes, who listened to the right people and acted on that information. Bravo defrafarming.blog.gov.uk/2024/04/16/lay…
