Looking at emails just posted on the Planning Inspectorate’s website, opposition to the giant Navitus Bay wind farm continues to mount. Of 213 people who have made representations in recent days, 207, or 97 per cent, are opposed to Navitus Bay.

This is an even bigger majority than the 87 per cent who opposed Navitus in a recent survey of the electorate by Bournemouth West MP Conor Burns.

In addition, 41 of the objectors have asked to be registered as interested parties as they are concerned about the effects of the vast volumes of noise, which will emanate from the enormous industrial turbines.

If you are concerned about wind farm noise affecting your property, email the inspectorate at navitusbay@infrastructure.gsi.gov.uk Say you wish to be an ‘interested party’, ref ENO 10024, as you are concerned about the impact the turbine noise will have on your property.

Once you are an interested party, you are entitled to make representations about the wind farm to the Examining Authority up to March 11. Experts say that anyone living near the coast will experience noise pollution.

As we celebrate the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta, and head to a general election, isn’t it ironic that one of the UK’s most controversial industrial developments can be pushed through, against the views of the majority of citizens, by a non-elected team of Bristol-based bureaucrats?
