I found this bit of the speech pretty worrying as it could mean anything! Are we scrapping environmental regulations? What about EU regs that are now UK law? What about laws which we’ve been told would be continued as UK regulations…
Govt have today published very worrying new guidance on Investment Zones
Ministers appear willing to consider Investment Zones covering SSSIs & National Parks
And guidance includes mention of "a new streamlined planning system"

Still deeply troubled by Truss observation that "So many Jewish values are Conservative values and British values too." Which Jewish values aren't British values then?
As I just mentioned to someone on here, this is the first time I have genuinely felt that Labour might lose the next general election. What a grim misreading of the mood.
Here's your reminder that banks give billions to the fossil fuel corporations that are causing the climate crisis.
Without their money, fossil fuels would go out of business. #EndFossilFinance

Unashamed lies. Unbounded contempt for voters. Unconcerned by the pandemic. Unconscious of the sacrifices of ordinary people over the last 2 years. Unfit for office. https://t.co/rO1fNLLwC8
@ProfColinDavis@cj_stroud@damiengayle@JustStop_Oil Completely agree Colin, I can't understand the logic behind this at all, comes across as patronizing and has just pissed off a lot of people, me included despite being a climate activist.
@JustStop_Oil I'm a climate activist and am all for direct action BUT this just seems like a way to alienate and annoy people who we need to get on side. Target those to blame, politicians, banks, and oil execs, rather than just pissing people off! Things like this give us a bad name
Looks like @TotalEnergies are feeling the heat!
Right now, they're removing ALL critical comments on their facebook page.
Total doesn't want to be called out on their climate-wrecking profits.
Let's make sure they can't ignore us - RT now! #StopTotal#OOTT
Energy price hikes announced on the same day that oil giant Shell reports highest profits in 8 years.
There's something very wrong with a system that allows this to happen.
We need to tackle the root causes of this crisis. We need a Green New Deal --> https://t.co/1wAqen2rEc
