The 2.7m people we brought in over the last 5 years need somewhere to live. Don’t think too hard about not wanting that either. It’s progress.

People can’t complain we aren’t building enough and support stuff like this.

A new 20k town like this is needed every few months just to house male migrants arriving by boats, and even more when a few years later they’re legally entitled to bring their family or a friend/relative’s family over.

We simply need more houses and there is no point in building them where people don’t want to live, the idea of a new town being built on brownfield land is not really happening. This town is near where people want to live and work, there is space and some infrastructure already in place.
As log as the Government gets the infrastructure upgrades right then the locals will just have to get on with it.

Not much of a protest if they couldn’t manage to take a photo with more than 12 people in it, at least 3 of whom are under 13.

Ladder pulling Nimbyrati will just get overruled by central government.
Still, nice day out for the boomers.

Extreme NIMBYism. I suspected this would happen as soon as the projected new housing numbers were announced.
