Absolutely agree Zinger. That’s the main reason why the bickering politicians should have had the LDP in place years ago.
The LDP concept was designed to get broad stroke objectives in play in the early LDP phase, get agreement on (say) the need for Housing, then put a plan in place to resolve all of the logistical detail.
The sad thing is that there was an early acceptance of the need for Housing, no LDP, the 2021 census late in the day, an attempt by some to argue that the hypothetical LDP was mis-premised, political rowing backwards……and then a shit-show.
My point is that Housing has to be a genuine priority, an LDP should have been in place several years ago, the real debate should have been about the ‘where’ (of the Houses) and the logistics to match.
Now, they’re all over the place
