one of my favorite recurring subplots in housing discourse is NIMBYs talking about any major dev project like it’s a form of settler colonialism and meanwhile actual indigenous people are like “we are going to build the biggest apartment buildings you have literally ever seen”
"We think that building housing is part of the solution. We think net zero is part of the solution. We think a car-light development is part of the solution. We think building a sense of place and community is part of the solution."

The Children's Commissioner wants the social media ban extended to 18. Even though people will be able to vote at 16. The Beatles first went to Hamburg when George Harrison was 17. You can also decide to take on £50k of tuition fee debt at 17.
