You've commented this several times, but it's actually quite misleading despite being technically accurate.

Yes, there hasn't technically been a universal ban since a few years ago, but until this year legislation basically allowed NIMBY's to veto any new onshore wind farms with no way for local authorities to force approval through, which is why less than ten new onshore wind projects were approved England in 2021-23 compared to hundreds in Scotland.

So sure, not officially a ban but it was effectively a ban.

And that's what the new government have fixed: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/policy-statement-...
