Meanwhile, Britain is *very* densely populated — much denser than America would be if we tripled our population — but their tiny very expensive houses are driven by bad planning rules (nothing is by right!) not objective land scarcity. https://t.co/s0hrIUCe2R — PolitiTweet.org

If the president of the United States is repeatedly giving your orders you regard as illegal, unconscionable, or both I think there are real dilemmas regarding exactly what the best course of action is. But “save it for the book” can’t possibly be the right answer. — PolitiTweet.org

Of course it is also Trump’s unique genius to keep multiple scandals in the air simultaneously such that they tend to crowd each other out in terms of coverage. — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve seen time and again that bad outcomes were averted during Trump’s term because many of his appointees refused to carry out some his directions. But just counting on that to hold through a second term seems awfully risky. — PolitiTweet.org

@dsquareddigest @yorksranter @stianwestlake My view is really pretty simple — the rules should allow for more building. Could be more density, could be more sprawl, could be both. Should build more stuff. — PolitiTweet.org

Truss wants regressive tax policy to create bigger financial incentives for investment, but the best thing for the UK to invest in — housing — is largely blocked by regulators so she’d just be creating a windfall for existing rich people. — PolitiTweet.org

The overall economic situation is so bleak that the long-incumbent Tories are denouncing the “stagnating economic and anaemic growth.” But their plan is more tax cuts when it should be more construction. https://t.co/s0hrIUCe2R https://t.co/XHSddrVYVM — PolitiTweet.org

UK planning regime is so bad that the Blitz was actually beneficial because it created exemptions to the rules and allowed for taller buildings — your zoning practices should not be more harmful than strategic bombing. https://t.co/s0hrIUCe2R https://t.co/PXapIkqR5D — PolitiTweet.org

The UK has a new king and a new prime minister but what they really need is a new housing policy, ideally one that builds more housing. https://t.co/s0hrIUCLSp — PolitiTweet.org

The new ideas on the right are coming from the guy who ran AEI during the Bush years — it’s still just tax cuts and nationalist mumbo jumbo, but with the exact nature of the mumbo jumbo tweaked to fit the opportunistic imperatives of the day. https://t.co/R8Sc29exna — PolitiTweet.org
