Perhaps if we didn't import all the world's waifs and strays we might not need as many homes? Sadly though, that is only part of the problem. The UK economy revolves around house building and the debt created by mortgages. It's a bubble economy that will burst spectacularly at some stage. What we saw in 2008 was only a glimpse of what's to come.

Yes, the PM seems to have forgotten all about 'rebalancing the economy' since the election.

As long as they're trained properly and not used as cheap labour to boost profits!

I'm in 2 minds about this. Stratford will finally be rid of the constant aircraft annoying everyone in the area, but they'll be replaced by cars clogging up roads not designed to take that much traffic.

Will they listen? Somehow I doubt it. The plan is already passed and awaiting a rubber stamp. - Like so many things when we're invited to participate in 'consultations'. - Nothing more than a PR exercise.

Local objections over-ruled by the secretary of state!

I'm surprised by the decision - that's the rural side of town, but maybe there's no room left along the Stratford Road where most of the development has been going on.

If a'holes could fly, the council house would be an airport!

Again, if we didn't import the world's detritus we wouldn't need extra housing! We can't cope with what we have, so importing more is sheer stupidity.
