You know, simply adding more chairs to the game won't actually seat more people. It's not as simple as that, it's Very Complex. For a start, they need to be affordable chairs, not chairs for INVESTORS!
There’s good evidence that building market rate housing reduces rents across the market (not just at the top end). If affordability requirements make development unviable, then not only will we see less affordable homes (100% of 0 is 0) but less downward pressure on rents.
Incredibly depressing quotes from @shelter and @natfednews in this Guardian piece. We are effectively not building any homes at all in London, affordable, social or otherwise. That's why 97,000 people are homeless! But moral purity is so much more comfortable.
We do not need a police crackdown on people chanting offensive things. There are many more important things that the police should be doing!

NEW: Green Party members have passed a motion to make it party policy to abolish landlords - the vote took place this lunchtime on the final day of the party’s conference in Bournemouth.
Good top three: 1. Planning reform to allow housebuilding 2. Environmental regulation reform to allow transport infrastructure 3. More cheap nuclear energy
NEW: Today we release the results of the @britishprogress Growth Survey. We asked over 100 economists and experts what the Government needs to do to fix productivity and drive growth. Here’s what they said: 🧵
Nepal’s uprising was a generation in the making: A young Nepali who witnessed both the 2006 uprising and this week’s upheavals says “it’s the uncertainty that lies ahead that now scares me.” @ishaantharoor washingtonpost.com/world/2025/09/…
After an IDF sniper from Chicago kills an unarmed civilian in Gaza, he then snipes and kills his unarmed younger brother trying to retrieve his brother's body. US-funded serial killer from Chicago says: "I mean, what was so important about that corpse?"
⚡️🇪🇸🇮🇱BREAKING: Spain Imposes Comprehensive Sanctions on Israel: Arms and Settlement Bans, Travel Restrictions, and Expanded Support for Palestine and Gaza PM Pedro Sanchez: “One thing is to protect your country and another very different thing is to bomb hospitals and starve…
London is currently paralysed by transport strikes, at enormous cost to the British economy, as yet more rents are extracted from the people of London. Since 2023, TfL has actually had the power to require continued minumum service (40% of normal sevices) during strikes. Similar…
new from me for @worksinprogmag: how France achieved the world’s fastest nuclear buildout I tell the story of how France defied the global backlash against nuclear power by aligning local incentives, embracing standardisation and abandoning a failed domestic design. 🧵
This is evil. Even the most incompetent military on the planet would instantly realize this little girl isn't a combatant. So why was she murdered? Who murdered her? We will never know because this happens day after day after day and the IDF doesn't care about accountability.
Exclusive footage newly obtained by Al Jazeera captures the harrowing moment an Israeli drone-fired missile killed a Palestinian girl carrying water in Jabalia, northern Gaza, in December 2024. Two men are later seen retrieving her body.
Still think about this every time I hear someone romanticizing the pre-industrial era
Free speech in this country is in a dire state, we need first amendment-like protections to stop this getting worse than it already is.
Arrest update: We’ve now made more than 50 arrests in Parliament Square and our interventions continue. We have significant resources deployed to this operation. It will take time but we will arrest anyone expressing support for Palestine Action.
The latest update in the clash between Beijing against the British planning system. A contest between a state-dominated morass of officialdom and bureaucracy that throttles human freedom at every turn, and on the other side it's the Chinese government.

UK demands China explain redacted parts of London embassy plan
Some drawings for the ‘mega’ project close to the Tower of London have blacked out sections
BBC’s Jeremy Bowen: Israelis don’t want us to film outside the window at the devastation in Gaza…communities in the north of Gaza are flat, there’s nothing left…Israel will not allow reporters, like myself, to enter Gaza to report the story and they don’t want us to see it
Affordable housing requirements are like a gateway drug for left-NIMBYISM. You think you're just having a quick puff on the "we need more units at X% below market rate" pipe, but soon after you're injecting "supply can't solve the housing crisis" directly into your eyeballs.
867 new homes to replace a car park and shopping arcade in Peckham. Rejected by the council (and opposed by the local MP, Labour environment minister @Miatsf). standard.co.uk/news/london/pe…
Usually when I see someone saying something awful is capitalism they are describing something that 1) is genuinely awful 2) is a consequence of material scarcity and 3) has gotten much much less bad under capitalism
This is brilliant news. As well as the boost for tennis, these plans will open up land that was previously a private golf club for public access and enjoyment. theguardian.com/sport/2025/jul…
The zero-sum trap: the more people believe that wealth, status, and well-being are zero-sum, the more they back policies that make the world zero-sum. marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolu…
A private golf course will close and a public park with lakeside walks will double in size. And people objected. theguardian.com/sport/2025/jul…
