Vikki Slade, MP for Mid Dorset and North Poole, is opposing a proposed waste-to-energy incinerator at Canford Magna, previously rejected by local council. Developer MVV has appealed the decision, revealing that only 20% of waste will be from the local area, raising concerns about increased lorry traffic and pollution. Slade emphasized the potential negative impact on residents and questioned the benefits to the community from the generated heat and energy. She urged the Inspector to reject the appeal, asserting it conflicts with circular economy goals, with a decision expected later this summer.
