Proceeding contribution from Alex Cunningham (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 September 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Wind Farm Development (Sedgefield).
Wind Farm Development (Sedgefield)
I hope my hon. Friend and my neighbouring MP will forgive me if I go off on a slight tangent. Does he agree that while our constituents are getting the pain of wind farms, they are not getting the benefits? That was perhaps best illustrated this week when EDF awarded all its contracts for a massive wind farm off the Teesside coast to companies abroad, instead of creating jobs in our constituencies for our people who have the skills and facilities with which to build that farm.
