This is rhetorically the most pro-building govt ever, but housebuilding has ground to a halt and Heathrow still expect their planning app to cost £800m to produce.
The problem is there's a massive gap between what Labour say they want and what they're doing.

Bad regulations that require us to build bat sheds and produce 80,000 page EIAs clearly make infrastructure more expensive than necessary.
But are theu really enough to explain why HS2 and Hinkley are so expensive? Here's my answer.

Nuclear works. It’s safe, clean and reliable. In other countries, it’s affordable too.
Here's how Britain can lead again in nuclear by fixing bad safety rules, streamlining planning, and creating new routes to market.

Britain once led the world in nuclear power.
Today, we’re building the most expensive nuclear power station in history.
Why? And how do we fix it?

@chriscurtis94.bsky.social is absolutely right - this is urgent.
It's families in temporary accommodation and people struggling to pay their energy bills who are facing the consequences of our failure to build homes and energy infrastructure.

Welcome news but we need to go much further.
Nuclear in Britain takes too long and costs too much. We must cut red tape, speed up planning and commit to building a fleet- like South Korea who build nuclear 6x cheaper than us.
Britain led the world in nuclear once. We can again!

We need Estate Renewal Passports to give automatic planning permission to plans residents support.
At the Aberfeldy Estate in London, a plan to turn 330 post-war homes into 1,600 new ones was rejected, despite 93% support from residents (who all get new homes).
