In a statement criticising proposals to build an incinerator large enough to power 29,000 dwellings, Ford Parish Council announced it would hold a demonstration, along with MP Nick Gibb, against the plans.

Waste management company Grundon wants to produce energy at the site of the former Tarmac Topblock works by burning a mixture of waste materials, including plastics.
