So, the Severnside Lib Dems have reached a conclusion on the Severn Barrage. You can read the press release on the Severn report here. The BBC cover it here.
The report itself is pretty readable, as these things go. Its argument makes a lot of sense. It would of course, be a change of policy for the party on either side of the estuary, and will need to be voted on at conference in the Autumn.
My own approach to the question of Severn energy has been to ask, What would Brunel do? But on balance, I don’t think Brunel would have been so bothered about the fish.
Should make for interesting discussions over the weekend.

Not only the fish, but also the birds need to be considered. The Severnside MPs proposal would be downstream of Slimbridge, would it not?
