We need to remember that the "Independent" @neso_energy has only one director @Ed_Milliband. How independent does that really make this energy organisation, crucial to Milliband's impossible Net Zero push. @PylonsEAnglia @fionacurt @northessexnotes @GraemeCrook81

Use our AI tool to help you draft your objection to the pylons! It's very, very simple. Type your main worries (e.g loss of farmland, impact on listed buildings, bird collisions) into it and it writes a submission. Check, customise & you're done. https://t.co/VA6T3mQ6w4

On ITV 15Nov, Simon Pepper @nationalgriduk still trotting out the same incorrect figures. The modern, narrow trenching of HVDC will cost similar to properly costed pylons @PylonsEAnglia @NikkiMaguire22 @SuzanneBD @northessexnotes @fionacurt

@PylonsEAnglia @nationalgrid @ofgem Shareholders benefit for years @nationalgrid over consumers. Neglect of transmission infrastructure for decades leads to chaotic panicky piecemeal decisions to meet arbitrary net zero date @GraemeCrook81 @BylinesEast @Ed_Miliband @riversideros @ByDonkeys @RosieP4 @NikkiMaguire22

@PylonsEAnglia @nationalgrid @ofgem Dereliction of duty:shareholder benefit.Had NG done their job properly - strategic transmission planning over the decades - we wouldn't now have wrong decisions, industrialising the countryside @SuzanneBD @NikkiMaguire22 @northessexnotes @EmmaforWycombe @ReynliR31271 @fionacurt

Half year results for @nationalgrid - it's all about the shareholder at the expense of the Great British countryside. Wildlife, communities, heritage, businesses all being sacrificed for profit and @Ofgem MIA: https://t.co/ErhFOnUrHn

There's something rather symbolic about @nationalgriduk trying to hide a pylon (in one of its visualisations for the Norwich to Tilbury route) behind a steaming muck heap. @PylonsEAnglia

@RosieP4 @ZackPolanski @PylonsEAnglia If you really cared about the environment @ZackPolanski then you would not be promoting pylons ! There are alternatives that are far less damaging to the environment !

I am really sick of politicians stating that pylons are the answer without taking any time to understand the harms to the environment or the better ways of doing things. Particularly disappointing from the Green Party. @ZackPolanski
@PylonsEAnglia
How ungreen can the Greens be? Pylons are a disaster for the natural environment. Solar should not be on best farmland. @ZackPolanski: come to East Anglia to understand the impacts of what you are advocating AND the much better alternatives. https://t.co/tFcs8kOzWi

Hearing @ZackPolanski on @BBCr4today wanting to bring bills down. He wonβt do that if he doesnβt understand how the grid upgrade works!

This is the HS2 of East Anglia. It will result in a swathe of destruction for 180km, and this is just archaeological trenching in one patch. So N2T can be seen from space even before it starts.
Norwich to Tilbury, the pylons proposal, can be seen from space even before planning approval. Imagine the destruction if it gets approval. These are archaeological trenches on one section of the 180km route.

Zack Polanski says he will pick fights, challenge Labour and take the fight to Reform UK.

Supporting pylons is as ungreen as it gets. @ZackPolanski would know that if he'd bothered to come to East Anglia before saying he supports them. There are better ways of upgrading the grid that do not destroy the environment and kill birds.
