Objecting to National Grid's On-Shore Pylon Proposal for Lincolnshire

 I object to National Grid’s proposal for 140km of overhead lines being treated as the default option for Lincolnshire. We deserve to be able to have a meaningful choice on overland, underground or offshore options. I am calling for National Grid to give us an independent review into offshore options for Lincolnshire's east coast.

As part of my campaign, I am writing to Ed Miliband, Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero with the below letter, to invite him to visit our area and see for himself the impact that these proposals are having on our local area. If you would like to sign my letter, please sign up below.
