Anti-incinerator campaign success

Campaigners have won a legal challenge to block the building of an incinerator in Cornwall.

The £117m scheme at St Dennis was refused by the former county council, but the government overturned the decision.

A High Court judge said on Thursday the government had not properly considered whether an environmental assessment had to be carried out.

Waste firm Sita UK warned delays could raise costs to more than £200m
