Ed Miliband's plan to build thousands of pylons across the UK has faced criticism after an official report found that burying electricity cables underground could be cheaper in the long run.
The government has argued that overhead pylons are less expensive and necessary to meet net zero targets by 2030. However, a report on the East Anglia Network, where many pylons are planned, suggests that underground cables are a more cost-effective solution over time.
This has encouraged campaigners who prefer energy options with less impact on the countryside. Critics are now calling for a nationwide study into alternatives to pylons, accusing the government of pursuing a "dogmatic" approach.
Jeremy Kyle and Reform UK’s Deputy Leader, Richard Tice, discuss the latest political news.
