It's rather surprising that CPRE doesn't understand the difference between "greenfield" and "green belt"? The Labour policy is pretty clear: the UK's natural and precious landscapes will be protected. Concrete and car parks will not.

So many people don't seem to understand this. Green belt policy has nothing to do with protecting precious rural landscapes. That's what AONBs, AGLVs, SSSIs, National Parks, Ancient Woodland etc are for!

The @LGHFabians #HomesForLondon report—in which I've written about suburban intensification—is now live, with some great ideas on how the Labour government can tackle the housing crisis from contributors incl. @AntBreach @JonnElledge @marcvlessing + more. conciliocomms.com/stories/homes-…
Excellent news. We need a proper, grown-up discussion about the green belt, free from ideology, which properly considers the parts that should be built on and the bits that need additional protection.

A smarter approach to the release of green belt land is essential to building the homes our country needs. Labour will prioritise the development of low-quality ‘grey belt’ sites and impose ‘golden rules’ to ensure it always meets local housing need. thetimes.co.uk/article/0fb2b9…
And rural solar farms of course

This is a strange story. Anyone from RCKa who's likely to attend site has a CSCS card...it's an important safety consideration, and neither difficult nor expensive to obtain. It's not unreasonable for contractors to expect professionals to have one. architectsjournal.co.uk/news/contracto…
Delighted to have scribbled a little contribution to this, on the subject of suburban intensification, and how low-density bits of our cities can deliver hundreds of thousands of homes.

We are pleased to announce that we will be launching our Homes for London pamphlet with contributions from across our capital, supported by our partners at @ConcilioComms, next week. Please join us from 7pm on Thursday 18th April at Fabian Society HQ on Petty France.

Anyone else have a problem with @socialvalueport sending threatening emails chasing payments for services they haven't provided for agreements that don't exist—and not answering the phone? These clowns don't have a clue about genuine social value. Public bodies should avoid them.

@russellcurtis @CavConsult Imo, for all planning apps, the only items the cttee should be reviewing are major apps recommended for refusal. Compliant apps should always be approved. The cttee make-up should have less cllrs and include planners and senior council officers.
@russellcurtis @LizLandUK @CPRE Any new designations should not be known as “Green Belt”. It should never have been known as that from the outset.

Many aspects of the proposed Earl's Court development are welcome. ✅4,000 much needed new homes and fantastic cultural & employment opportunities. But I'm concerned about the proposed cluster of skyscrapers, up to 42 storeys high. Tell me your views👇 greghands.com/earls-court-de…
It’s out! My latest and indeed first ever book is published today. How To Enjoy Architecture: A Guide for Everyone, published by @yalepress, approaches architecture as a source of profound pleasure and enjoyment.
@CPRE You're deliberately mixing up the greenbelt with the countryside, much of the greenbelt is far from idyllic countryside.
Slightly obsessed with this tiny bit of greenbelt holding the line and stopping the chaotic and disastrous merging of Leeds and Bradford.
@robfordmancs I think @russellcurtis has been consistently excellent on this issue. I believe there are 94 golf courses within Greater London, I'd be happy to see that reduced to 60 - 70
Hard to think of any party that would have a worse manifesto on housing than what the Greens have produced. Evicted using public money used to buy instead of build new council homes? Become a lodger.
Delighted @UKLabour & @Keir_Starmer have taken up my campaign on building a million new homes on the Grey Belt! Like all @UKLabour MPs I spend a lot of time thinking about other women. Chiefly those who are homeless or living in overcrowded homes 🏠 🌹🏠🌹
@russellcurtis @AnnaClarke_____ Complicated planning stuff but anything agricultural or outdoor sport is excluded from definition of PDL. For sound reasons if we think about it. Grey Belt is good way to address such uses within Green Belt. Need to sign off this now!
@russellcurtis @PhilipBarnes_ Appears to come under permitted development so wouldn't require planning permission: timminsengineering.co.uk/permitted-deve…
Fantastic evening yesterday at the launch of @LGHFabians new pamphlet: Homes for London.🏠 Lots of brilliant contributions on what can be done to tackle the Housing Crisis in London.🌹
Fantastic! You'll see me - and thousands of other North Londoners - on the Barnet-Edgware loop before long
NEW: The success of the Superloop is one of my proudest achievements, connecting Londoners in outer London & getting more people onto public transport. If I'm re-elected on 2 May, I'll deliver Superloop 2 - doubling the number of express bus routes. standard.co.uk/news/transport…
Time for a grown-up debate about GB - how we review it (strategically), where we should prioritise affordable housing & how we can make GB more 'green' - sweat it's assets. Well done @UKLabour @mtpennycook for getting this vital debate started.
A smarter approach to the release of green belt land is essential to building the homes our country needs. Labour will prioritise the development of low-quality ‘grey belt’ sites and impose ‘golden rules’ to ensure it always meets local housing need. thetimes.co.uk/article/0fb2b9…
This is great to see from Labour In our Commission on Poverty and Regional Inequality, @thefabians called for Green Belt reform to build more affordable homes + deliver more accessible green spaces fabians.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
The next Labour government with @Keir_Starmer as Prime Minister will reform our planning system and release grey belt land for development. So we can build affordable homes, boost public services and improve green spaces.

As a business owner dealing with the consequences of significant uncertainty from public and private sector clients, the government’s failure to set a date for an election everyone knows has to happen is extremely frustrating.
