The government has today published its long-dreaded paper on future #planning reforms. I'm afraid I'm going to have to say something about it here because it really is bloody awful.
My good friend @Garden_Heritage has already pointed out that the title of the paper is "Planning for the future" and asked "is there any other kind?" https://twitter.com/Garden_Heritage/status/1291255802666332160?s=20

Just tagging this thread with the government-approved #PlanningForTheFuture complete hashtag.
