Cheers @Dogkennelhillbilly Fascinating edition of More of Less on Radio 4 on the oft quoted figure of 3/4 million empty homes in the UK. That is a snap shot on one day on properties excluded from council tax including the owner dying, being renovated, moved house and the like. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002phn6 Right, off to talk more stats on the transport threads. PS Victoria got some stats very wrong on Newsnight on Venezuelan oil exports which the US/Venezuelan hawk/spokesperson did not contradict.

Reluctantly selling our beloved cargo bike as our girls (8+5yr) can't squeeze in together any more! The bike is Dutch built Jonny Loco cargo bike, with a Bafang 750W middrive motor. We have had it for 4 years, having bought it new, and kept it well maintained and undercover. We live in a hilly area in south London, and it has been a central part of our lives - the school run, shopping trips, pick ups and drop offs within 5 mile radius. Lots of longer daytrips all over London... Very comfortable riding position - it takes a little bit of getting used to with the front wheel so far forward and the long wheelbase of a cargo bike - but the bike feels very cruisy and relaxed riding in an upright position. Very Mary Poppins! Pick up in West Norwood, London, 5 mins from station. SE27 0LB. Happy to talk through specs and arrange a trial ride etc (phone number on DM) Specs Bafang Mid Drive motor 750W Bafang Display 850C Battery - Greenlance Samsung Electric Bike 48V 13AH (this was replaced in Nov 2024, so is relatively new) Charger - 2A Gears - Shimano Nexus Hub 7 Gear Brakes - Shimano Inter Roller Brake Frame lock - Abus Tyres - Schwalbe Big Ben Plus Wheels - Back wheel rebuilt Apr 2025, very strong Halo rims and spokes Bucket - tough, waterresistant fabric, 2 internal fabric hammock type chairs, position adjustable Total length - 230cm ; Bucket length 85cm width 60cm

So much nonsense in a single post! 1) this vaguely xenophobic stuff is based on a belief that London is full of houses owned by foreigners that are kept empty and out of the hands of native buyers and renters. This is unmitigated bullshit. "England has the lowest rate of empty homes in the OECD, and Greater London has about one-tenth the level of Paris, just 0.7% of properties being empty compared to 6.5%...the effect on the general housing crisis is minuscule. London, Oxford, Cambridge, Brighton and other cities have eye-wateringly expensive housing because of high demand and low supply. That’s the obvious and boring answer." https://www.edwest.co.uk/p/the-myth-of-londons-empty-homes 2) where do you get this idea that infill sites have to be small? Southwark and the GLA planning documents explicitly recognise that industrial sites can be infill sites. 3) It is simply factually untrue and misleading that taller buildings are out of character for the area of the development. The neighbouring school has taller blocks, Hambledon Court on the other side of the tracks is a taller building, the Dog Kennel Hill estate on the other side of the station consists of taller buildings. 4) if that is the lesson you have taken away, then is your opposition to this new housing in East Dulwich part of a Lib Dem policy to "deny, baby, deny"? Let's be real for a second: there is no way out of the housing crisis that doesn't involve building lots of new housing. If we can't build on top of a disused builder's yard above a railway station, where are we going to build in this neighbourhood? 5) This is also nonsense. The student accommodation was initially closed because of systemic fire risks that made the buildings unsafe. KCL is now halfway through totally renovating the blocks and expanding capacity. KCL gets twice as many applications for student accommodation as it can fulfil. KCL just opened another 452 student rooms in Battersea - so clearly they don't have a concern about a cataclysmic decline in student numbers. https://www.rlb.com/europe/projects/kcl-champion-hill/ https://roarnews.co.uk/2024/kcl-accommodation-still-empty-four-years-after-evacuation/ https://www.constructionenquirer.com/2025/03/03/watkin-jones-wins-30m-student-digs-campus-upgrade/ It is really disappointing that someone involving themselves in planning matters is relying on (and spreading) prejudices, misconceptions and misinformation like this.
