With houses comes the need for updated sewers, roads, surgeries and schools. None of which are being built or repaired.
I don’t think Nimbys would like more houses built in their neck of the woods regardless of the number of surgeries, roads, sewers and schools etc. They have got their ‘territory’ and to hell with anybody else, despite at the same time whingeing about house prices for youngsters.

Absolutely this, I am 100% for building new council housing, but these new streets must have places for buses to stop, schools, shops, doctor’s surgeries, sufficient sewerage, and the water authorities need to know that they can cater for however many new customers they would get.

Building yet another development requiring car ownership to get anywhere, where the sewers can’t cope, and on a flood plain is shortsighted in the extreme.

Infrastructure is important, neglect your infrastructure at your peril.

which firstly face the same problem, dont build it here, and secondly are built by public purse once there is demand for them. obsurdly often used by NIMBY complaints even when developments include them in the plans.

Looks like Tory banta but the next forever war will make Babcock and BAE even more money, shame we can't check who's got shares in them and what deals shaps is doing to be on the board of directors once the tories are out.

Brighton and Southern Water built new a sewerage treatment plant in Peacehaven but it doesn’t stop sewerage being pumped into the sea. Loads of houses have been built locally but the A259 just cannot cope.

Woe betide anyone trying to get the 700 through Shoreham once the monstrosities on the riverbank have been completed - or indeed trying to get a doctor's appointment locally.

Oh, they can always be worse. That’s what they specialise in.

But but but aren’t we all supposed to hail the dawn of a New Shoreham. Riverside living etc?

The millionaires from London need a seaside sanctuary surely!?

They’ve turned Shoreham into an overcrowded cliche.

And there are only 5 more blocks to go up 😞

Does this mean we have to pray for Cruella Braverman to stay in post because she could be replaced by somebody worse! you can not be serious!

So essentially, instead of paying to rebuild unsafe schools, they decided to not bother and cut the funding. Feels like quite an abrogation of responsibility for a Government.

That's the nature of austerity. It's to make sure it's the other party that has to raise the taxes.

But like Raac, the tories have survived longer than anyone thought possible, so they're having to clean up their own s*** for a change

Keegan has been climbing the greasy pole for years lying low, no where to hide now.
