Sir Roger Gale

Conservative — Herne Bay and Sandwich

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 September 2026

Debate

Direction of Government

Contribution

In welcoming the Prime Minister to his place, let me say that I noticed his criticism of the water companies—a justified criticism, in many cases. May I direct his attention to the predatory activities of another private company? National Grid is seeking to pre-empt the construction of a station on the Minster marshes, with no planning consent whatsoever and while the results of a Planning Inspectorate inquiry are still awaited. Would he be kind enough to intervene?
