Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Wicks (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 12 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Climate Change and Sustainable Energy Bill.


Climate Change and SustainableEnergy Bill

I am following the hon. Gentleman’s argument with great interest. He seems to be putting forward a hypothesis that nimbys are essentially eco-warriors demanding that new housing development should have higher standards. Has that heroic hypothesis been tested empirically in his own constituency?
