The Government says this Bill is about growth, but there’s no long-term growth if nature is weakened. ‼️
Peers can change that today by backing science and backing nature.
This matters for everyone who cares about the future.
We’ll be watching... & our assessment will follow.

130: To limit EDPs to where they're effective
140, 245 & 246: To embed Swift bricks, bird-safe glass & hedgehog highways into new homes

This Bill has been a shambles from the start. Rushed, re-written, and risking the nature it claimed to value.
We need a government that sticks to its promises.
We need a planning system that works for people and for wildlife.
Peers: today is your chance to put it right. 📢

Take Swifts. Their numbers have plummeted by 68% in just 28 years.
We're proud to stand with @hannahbournetaylor.bsky.social in calling for Swift bricks. Nesting spaces built into new homes would give these remarkable birds a future.
Amendment 245: simple fix, huge impact. Surely a no-brainer?
