It is absolutely not true, @BBCr4today Gtr Mcr has sufficient suitable, available & achievable brownfield to meet gov targets but have still released over 2,000 ha GBelt! This is about profiteering from our green spaces, not about housing NEED! @SGMGB2017
It is NOT true that we have no choice but to build on the green belt

@StockportMBC This looks great, brownfield first, walkable, reuse, saving CO2, regeneration and CBD location 👍👆@RosieP4 Unlike @TamesideCouncil please do better, for proposals on Green Belt whilst the town centres are partly derelict @SaveTameside 🙏

I said same at a meeting tonight at #Braintree District Council. Biodiversity Net Gain plans as things stand will not stop the decline of #nature. To do that we need to stop destroying habitats in situ and stop pretending they can be "provided somewhere else".

Here we go again… developer reneging on affordable promises & new town failing.
“Gilston developers set for huge windfall by scrapping plans to build 1,700 affordable homes claim property consultants”
Why won’t the council listen?

Godley Green urban extension; sole justification for loss of greenbelt is an unsubstantiated housing requirement; a measly 15% to be “affordable”; Homes England funding for private housebuilders; a design code and masterplan that predicts car dependency. Shameful!

Given there is sufficient suitable, available & achievable brownfield land across Greater Manchester to more than meet the Government's housing target, this decision is about GREED, not need!
So which is it @RishiSunak @michaelgove ? You either want to give residents power or not? #greenbelt is either precious or its not? To call out @Keir_Starmer for wanting to build on our greenbelt and you’re doing just that!! 4000 objections just ignored @BBCPolitics @TelePolitics

This amount of housing could be accommodated in Tameside’s ‘empty’ town centres, building on car parks + brownfield sites…this is low density car 🚗 designed sprawl👇 #greenwash #greenwashing @createstreets @UDGUrbanUpdate Densify first @TamesideCouncil

The outline planning application for Godley Green Garden Village will be heard at Speakers Panel Planning on Wednesday 1st November- here is a little reminder of the (then) council leader Brenda Warrington in action.

Firstly, build on all your BROWNFIELD, Manchester!
Secondly, the tweet below is what your ‘garden village’ vision will end up looking like….

New towns and garden cities have been tried for over 100 years now and surely there's ample evidence by now that they're the wrong approach. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Places for Everyone, the Greater Manchester-wide development plan that has been a decade in the making, mentions HS2 a total of 85 times - about once every 5 pages.
What impact does the project’s cancellation have on that plan? – at Salford, England

Definition of ironic:-
Tameside Council launching an environmental campaign “Think Green”
Also Tameside Council - planning to build 2150 houses on greenbelt

Depressing how housing (roof over your head a basic need) is always reduced to Build more! Build on green belt! Build anywhere! It's like the Brexit bus all over again. Where's the proper, evidence-based debate: HOW DO WE MEET NEED, NOT DEMAND & SAVE THE PLANET?
'We are going to back big builders not the blockers'
Labour leader Keir Starmer spoke to #BBCBreakfast about Labour's plans to relax planning laws to allow more homes to be built in England

By which it seems that Labour wishes to continue to allow more and more unaffordable housing rather than tackling the real problems: lack of social housing, empty homes and housing as an investment class

We criticise the GMCA's dramtic u-turn on 32 proposed sites, totalling 521.5 hectares, which will no longer be designated as Green Belt, a nationally significant planning designation which protects the openness of land permanently. A poor planning day. @SGMGB @GMSpatialFrame

Thank you @ChrisClarksonMP for objecting to 'unjustified' Green Belt release. The annual UK 300k homes per year target, and Greater Manchester's don't add up. The Census 2021 and brownfield land should be used to plan. Look after our nature and farm land. @SGMGB2017 @BBCNWT

Brownfield land for 1.2 million homes unused, @cpre report shows. "More than half a million homes with planning permission waiting to be built." cpre.org.uk/news/brownfield-…

Grown-ups, if you want to understand how the property industry tries to con you into thinking that building a few more expensive but profitable market homes in rural areas will bring down your rent or let you buy somewhere years earlier...
