Charnwood Neighbours Against Wood Smoke Adrienne Williams The problem is that people don't follow advice, stoves are not fitted appropriately for the area, and usage is not policed so burners get away with anything.
And they know it.
Adrienne Williams The best burner with the bestest wood fuel is still hundreds of times more polluting than central heating, be it gas, oil or heat pump.
And it goes downhill from this best-case scenario.
That’s what these con artists keep forgetting to mention.
Why won’t they work? The Clean air act worked before. It was the law and people complied. Wood burning stoves just came in by stealth. People don’t need them they just want them. Smokers believed a ban on cigarette smoking in public places wouldn’t work but it has. #AirPollution
Speaking at UsdawUnion conference today, I set out Labour's plan to back our retail workers and tackle crime on our high streets.
Shoplifters might get away with it under a weak Tory government, but they won't on my watch.
Adrienne Williams No need for these high-tech (in 1924) 'products' here.
We already have enough of the stink industry all around us.
Charnwood Adrienne Williams Any survey would need to be undertaken in confidence as most stokers take revenge for any dissent by burning more. Look at the comments made to campaigners on X to know this happens. Usually when they can’t provide any facts to back up their arguments. Happens in real life too.
Charnwood Adrienne Williams If you care about clean air you would support protections for neighbours. Ask Defra UK , Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities and HETAS to ensure regulations are fit for purpose and protect everyone, whether in SCAs or not. Its about proximity to other properties, not whether urban or rural.
