We already had a trade deal with Canada. Any idea when we’re going to see the benefits of Brexit, rather than vast swathes of Kent being turned into piss and sh!t parks?

Did I state we did not? Of course we currently trade with Canada BUT under the terms of the EU currently in place and will continue until the year ends. The new deal is an interim agreement to continue on these terms until a new completely unfettered deal is negotiated to suit both Canada and us without any of the EU rules and restrictions applying. If you don't know, this is often known as a Letter of Intent.

Benefits of Brexit? Simple ...... we become responsible for all our future actions without being shackled by foreign law.

Lorry parks? If necessity deems it ... then do it. A few past and present examples of green land becoming 'industrialised' for necessity.

RAF stations built pre-war. Thousands of acres concreted over in the countryside ...... your county being one of the main ones.

Mineral extraction: Deep mining and opencast, Quarrying ....... i.e. British Gypsum and many more plants built in the countryside.

Electricity: Many huge power stations built alongside rivers in the countryside.

Airports, Motorways, Railways etc.

All the above combined dwarfing the proposed project you refer to. Don't you think the environment and the farming industry for example were harmed in any way by these projects and there weren't protests? Of course there were protests I would imagine, in many cases justifiable. But protecting, feeding, powering the country, producing raw materials and movement of such was deemed a necessity. Not always the correct decisions in the opinion of many living near these projects but in the greater scope of things, for the majority of the populace, the correct decisions.
