The result is in - we are leaving the EU.
However we must now make sure the UK doesn't water down
environmental safeguards we've inherited from the European Union.
Instead we must improve standards in order to protect our green and
pleasant land. Future generations deserve no less. Our priority
will be to ensure that our MP, Mel Stride and the Energy Secretary,
Amber Rudd, understand loud and clear that the referendum result
was not a mandate to weaken our environmental protection.
