Hmmmm. Letter to the Guardian. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/may/31/public-interest-in-housing-and-parks-should-trump-private-profits For me this is an example of someone with a very specific London perspective on a London problem wanting to put their local sticky plaster on the whole country, and perhaps being deliberately provocative! +I do not believe the "sitting on 600k Planning Permissions" comment - that is standard misinformation / sh*tstirring in the definition of "sitting on". 600k is a 3 year pipleline at current rates of approx 190k new dwellings per year for PPs that only last 3 years. There are many which are far further out on developments which will take perhaps a decade to build. eg The Westminster Council Chelsea Barracks Planning Brief was dated 2006. Outline PP was 2011. Completion due 2018. https://www.westminster.gov.uk/chelsea-barracks There are several more interesting letters on the page. Ferdinand
