An ambitious vision for how the UK’s seabed can continue to support the accelerated delivery of nature recovery and the transition to clean energy has been set out by The Crown Estate, which manages the seabed around England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Amid increasing demand on the seabed from sectors critical to the UK economy, The Crown Estate has been working with stakeholders to develop initial plans for a ground-breaking Marine Delivery Routemap.

The bold.approach I’d like to see is we nationalise our seabeds. Taking back all of the Crown Estate would be a longer term goal but the people not owning their own seabed feels wrong.

Sounds great. Until you recognise, it will just be a matter of time before a Tory gov sells them to private companies.
