Planning meetings are already being cancelled across the country.
Labour's new rules mean your councillor can no longer call in planning applications for you, and decisions on what gets built near you are handed to officials.
Local planning should be decided by the councillors you elect.

A wonderful day with @Ashley7Fox and @Conservatives from across Somerset - meeting members and speaking to residents.
There’s real energy and determination!
Only the Conservatives have the team, and the plan to deliver.

Thank you to @GarethBaconMP for joining us for a Q&A on Tuesday evening.

UPDATE: Groundworks are underway for Jaguar Land Rover-owner Tata Group’s new £4 billion battery manufacturing plant at the Gravity Smart Campus in Somerset.
The £4 billion factory - one of the UK's largest ever industrial investments - is expected to create 4,000 direct jobs plus thousands more across the supply chain.
Scheduled to open in 2026, Tata’s first battery plant outside of its Indian home market will be run by subsidiary Agratas. With an eventual output of 40GWh, the gigafactory is set to provide almost half of the battery production that the Faraday Institution estimates the UK will need by 2030. #UKmfg🇬🇧
