    1. If you’re wondering, as I was, what he meant, it’s an attempt to paint planning objectors as weird.

      We need water. We need houses. Surely water plants should, to a degree, be exempt from objectors.?

      Not that they actually had any intention of building anything anyway.

      Mica, Pyrite, Grenfell, asbestos, lead, shit sound insulation, no gardens or parking, building _in_ our parks, delaying building for decades to hold out for planning windfalls etc. etc..

      We need _more stringent_ standards, _more robust_ abilities to object, _much much much more expensive costs for not building_ (force developers to build at a height planners specify, or forfeit the site to the state).

      In the case of infrastructure like this – this is just the state dragging its heels to keep the housing crisis going, while turning this into a lobbying opportunity for rolling back standards and regulations.

      Never trust a word the state or developers say, on development delays.
