Leeds Liberal Party have said yes for a EfW Incinerator for Leeds, but there National Policy is to opposed EfW incineration and promote Zero Waste strategies (ie no burning) Leeds Tory party and other Conservative CCs like Suffolk, ESCC, BucksCC etc root of EfW incinerators, when most of the Tory front bench Cameron, Osbourne, Ainsworth are thoroughly against incinerator, and have the Green Blue Approach only alowing incinerators if small and with local consent. Am I missing something. Karen can you explain this EfW mess UK wide, or are you as confused as me in wondering why councils aren't going for the easier more socially acceptable MBT+AD for residual waste instead? Karen
