Reform council leader vows to 'lie in front of bulldozers'
The Independent
|October 14, 2025
Party has been vocal about its opposition to net zero plans
The leader of a Reform UK-led council has vowed to “lie in front of bulldozers” to stop Ed Miliband’s net zero projects in the area.
Several “nationally significant infrastructure projects” are planned for Lincolnshire, including solar farms and a corridor of pylons between Grimsby and Walpole, in Norfolk.
Reform UK has been vocal about its opposition to net zero plans, which are being backed by the energy secretary.
While local councils do not have the power to stop such projects, Sean Matthews, the leader of Lincolnshire County Council, has promised to take drastic action to stop them going ahead in the area.
