• 11 Dec 2024: Parliamentary Speech

  I note that the Government are proposing that for nationally significant infrastructure projects in energy, such as new pylons, there should be direct compensation for affected communities. Indeed, my hon. Friend the Member for Inverness, Skye and West Ross-shire (Mr MacDonald) recently led a debate on community benefit from renewable energy, which had strong participation from across the House. There is clear support for accepting that local communities should be compensated when asked to bear the brunt of the effects of national projects. Do the Government agree with the principle that there should be compensation for loss from these nationally significant planning decisions?

  We must bring people with us on this journey by sharing the benefits. As with other aspects of renewable energy policy, the current framework is incomplete and hands too much control to the landowners and developers, often at the cost of local communities. We urgently need an approach to renewables that has a strong presumption in favour of meaningful community engagement and sustained community benefit.

  The proposed Botley West Solar Farm does not deliver on key community benefits. I will continue to work with developers and local groups to ensure any renewable energy projects properly involve the community and benefit them in a meaningful way. https://x.com/CalumMillerLD/status/1846218721997869437/video/1 [Source]

  The climate emergency is an existential threat. Only the Lib Dems have an ambitious set of proposals that would BOTH get our country back on track to achieving net zero by 2045 AND take immediate steps that would bring down energy costs for UK households. https://twitter.com/friends_earth/status/1800169657577640040 [Source]

  I visited Sustainable Woodstock's community orchard and woodland, a fantastic group raising climate emergency awareness through local actions. As a @GreenLibDems member and your prospective Lib Dem MP, I'll champion green issues and support climate action for future generations. https://twitter.com/CalumMillerLD/status/1800848146274320424/photo/1 [Source]

  Pleased to speak @OxfordshireCC today on this excellent report on climate change and health. After floods, #BicesterandWoodstock residents have had sewage deposits left in their gardens and yards due to @thameswater releases: threatening their health. https://mycouncil.oxfordshire.gov.uk/documents/s70655/CC240416R09%20Annex%20DPH%20Annual%20Report.pdf https://twitter.com/CalumMillerLD/status/1780199783853904057/photo/1 [Source]

  The Conservatives’ alternative budget would CUT: ❌ Fire & rescue services ❌ Library services ❌ Community bus services and transport hubs ❌ Funding for 20mph schemes ❌ ALL additional capital investments to tackle climate change ???? ⁦@LibDemsOxon⁩ will INVEST instead https://twitter.com/CalumMillerLD/status/1625447463547985921/photo/1 [Source]

  Investment zones are not the right choice for Oxfordshire. There is already very significant growth planned through commitments made by the previous administration. We will focus on delivering those, while addressing climate change and tackling inequality. https://news.oxfordshire.gov.uk/investment-zones/ [Source]
