Radomes are used to weatherproof radar antenna while concealing their operations and are informally referred to as "golf balls" due to their dimpled appearance and colour.

If the application is successful there would be 37 radomes on the site which plays an important, if secretive, role in US and UK intelligence-gathering and communications.

Emma Hardy has launched a campaign to try and cut the cost of uniforms.

The Labour MP wants schools to stop forcing parents to buy clothes which have the school's embroidered logo on them.

"You shouldn't have to go to one shop in the city centre and to go and buy this uniform at an additional cost", she said.

"We're talking about embroidered logos on PE kits - for what? The children aren't in the sports teams, they're doing PE in the hall, why can't they just wear a plain white t-shirt?"

"Knowing the minster as I did and its security and fire defences, I thought, 'This can't be true'," he said.
