Every windfarm mapped - and the MPs who hate them
What difference do anti-windfarm MPs make? Conservative MPs have
written to prime minister David Cameron demanding cuts to support for onshore windfarms and easier ways to block them through planning objections. We thought it would be interesting to show where those MPs are based - and where windfarms are either working, planned or in planning. This map is the result - what patterns do you think it shows?
