A wonderful book. Does anyone seriously think that @AcornPG will put protection of the ‘nationally important tree collection’ over profit at #BristolZooGardens? No of course not. This dreadful development must not take place. #destruction #nature #trees

The High Court has confirmed that the tree preservation regime and planning regime must work hand in hand and that developers relying on the planning permission exception to the tree preservation regime do not have free rein. Here is the Judgment: caselaw.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ewhc/admin/2...
