So where do you suggest people live given that in some areas about the only places where the local NIMBYs will tolerate building is flood plains?
This is far from a simple solution. Who sits on planning committees? Councillors. What's always a vote winner? Pandering to
NIMBYs and
BANANAs by pledging to
keep house prices high 'preserve the local environment'.
