Housing Sec Steve Reed: "I'm sure someone living under a bridge would rather live in a flat with windows on one side than stay living under a bridge, because the cost of putting dual aspect in the building raises the build cost by 30%."

In 1937, London built 80,000 homes. Last year, it built less than half that. To find out why, I looked at two different planning applications for a four-storey block of flats from now and back then. 1937: 3 pages long. 2025: 1,250 pages long.

"This is my two-year old's bedroom and it's 30 degrees." Britain's got hotter, but only 5% of British households have AC. It's time to scrap Britain's anti-AC rules and Cool Britannia!

Big supermarkets are suing cheaper competitors like Aldi and Lidl to block them from opening new stores. In this vid, I explain how it’s an unintended consequence of planning rules designed to reduce traffic and protect high streets.

Labour pledged to create an 'automatic Yes' for new homes near train stations. They could do this by creating statutory National Development Management Policies which override local plans. Housing Secretary Steve Reed just confirmed they won't do that. Bottle, baby, bottle?

Big day for housebuilding. Expanding the Landfill Tax to rubble will add £20,000 to the cost of a new build home (and millions to the cost of infrastructure projects.) The Chancellor hasn’t ruled it out yet. If it goes ahead, it will be a disaster.

To hit their 1.5 million home target, Labour need places like Camden to approve >1,500 homes every six months. Between Jan-June 2025, our self-described YIMBY PM’s backyard approved just 24. Time to get tough.

Britain is the most expensive place in the world to build a nuclear power station. I spoke to MPs on the Energy Security and Net Zero about why that is and how others countries are able to build it cheaply.
