Localism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Alec Shelbrooke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Localism Bill.
To reinforce the point that my hon. Friend makes about councils listening, when the then governing coalition of Conservatives and Liberals on Leeds city council was discussing an incinerator, which I opposed, the Labour councillors made great play of the fact that the incinerator was going to be built. They won power on the council in 2010, and they are now building the incinerator. We have not heard a peep from the councillors who opposed it before.
