Illustrates how ā€˜Build Baby Build’ is an infantile flagship soundbite of nonsense. Everything is so much more expensive & difficult - but for no real betterment (biodiversity, nutrients, landfill, water, energy etc) With BPR IHT as well most SMEs will vanish Maybe that’s the plan

Every village should consider this approach - grass verges, limited signage (private & municipal), limited highway painting, vernacular palette, reduced street clutter….

Notice how (a) grass verges & (b) lack of signs (c) lack of paint lines or instructions shouting on the road make this ā€œfeelā€ more rural. Less here really is more, a theme picked up in …

The trees were talking. And no one had been listening. For decades, foresters believed trees were competitors—silent giants fighting for sunlight, water, and space. Cut down the weak ones, they said, and the strong would thrive. But Dr. Suzanne Simard, a Canadian forest

https://t.co/h4qUfQfadv Expecting water co/customers to treat pollution willfully created by others (often industrial behemoths) is futile. As Dr Sharma says: 1. apply the ā€˜polluter pays’ principle 2. turn off the pollution tap at source. Anything else is a sticking plaster.

River Arrow testing resumes! We stopped testing in May while EA investigated white clawed crayfish die off incident 2 miles upstream. Big shame to have a gap in the data (esp as the summer was hot/dry for so long) But still important to keep logging info. P target here is 0.05.

When we built our house 9 years ago we planted a lot of native hedge. This year the @CPREHfdshire ran traditional laying workshops using our hedge, teaching 30 or so people this rural skill. Hedges are viral - for biodiversity, flood risk, carbon/oxygen, soil, nutrients etc etc

Do we know how to stop & reduce the primary sources of nutrient pollution & how to restore the harms already caused? Yes. Do we know how to protect the catchment? Yes. Is it difficult? Maybe. But it’s probably not as difficult & harmful as the futile 7 yr housing ban has been.

Did the polluted Lugg improve after the housing ban was imposed in 2019? No. It got worse. In 2023 its ecological status was downgraded to ā€˜unfavourable declining’ - just one category above ā€˜partially destroyed’. In 2025 it was listed as one of the nations worst for biocides too.

This donkey isn’t even carrying half the issues being lumped on housing providers. It’s too much. The system is utterly buggered, from policy to procurement to provision - yet burdens, costs delays, hurdles, risks & blame come from all firing lines. From Cash Cow to Lame Duck

Back in 2009, a young opposition politician compared building homes to a game of Buckaroo - pile too much on the donkey, and eventually it bucks. (You'll have to read the piece to find out who they were...) Fifteen years later, has the donkey had enough? 🧵

A new tax is set to add over Ā£20,000 to the cost of building a new home. Housebuilding has already ground to a halt in London. This will kill it off everywhere else and put small builders like Joe’s company out of work.
