Is build build build really the best way forward for the English planning system?

Is build build build really the best way forward

An article in "The Conversation" in 2020, critiquing the proposals then being put forward by the Policy Exchange and supported by government, to replace the planning system with a “zoning” system in which development would be granted automatic permission. Outlines current challenges in the planning system (housing, climate, biodiversity, health, poverty, and public engagement) and suggests a better planing system should be developed.
