Default Typical tory MP

In message sting.com,
Artic writes

A Tory MP who has opposed taxpayer subsidies for green energy has been
accused of hypocrisy after winning planning permission to build a
"hideous" solar farm the size of 110 football pitches on his country
estate.

Richard Drax ignored the wishes of hundreds of residents by ploughing
ahead with the controversial plans to build the third biggest solar farm
in Britain on land which once inspired Thomas Hardy.

It is believed it will receive nearly £2 million a year in the same
government subsidies he campaigned against. The MP for South Dorset has
been accused of hypocrisy and presiding over the ?industrialisation of
the countryside?.
