I ask, because developer Avanton thinks it needs an alligator park
And judging by the size of the alligator in the CGI used in the story, not just baby ones either!

Nope, that is just adding to yet more people and more congestion.
LONDON IS FULL. And a lot of it due to people from overseas and their families that have settled in the place over the years.
People need to relocate to other areas of the UK Not just london and the South East.
How can people from overseas and their families afford to live in London?LONDON IS FULL. And a lot of it due to people from overseas and their families that have settled in the place over the years.

There is a shortage of social and affordable housing across the UK. Currently 1m families on waiting lists and need for 134,000 new social and affordable houses every year.
Saying dont do them in London is wrong, if there is a shortage of supply everywhere.
Government already owns plenty of land in London it could use.
I work in London and commute - its extremely expensive. I am lucky, I am well paid but many people aren't, how can a nurse working in London afford a £5k pa season ticket? How can your office cleaner afford to get to work if they live a long commute away etc
London cannot function without all of the modestly paid support and key workers. Move em all out to Grimsby where there are cheap houses and London will stop functioning in an instant
Agree with this. The government could take some steps to improve conditions for keyworkers, if they don't want to pay them more outright.Saying dont do them in London is wrong, if there is a shortage of supply everywhere.

- Allow them to claim back mortgage interest or rent vs their tax, so they get their salaries virtually tax free
- Free travel on TFL
keyworkers in my opinion are nurses, careworkers, emergency services, state school teachers etc

London is a fantastically cosmopolitan, multicultural, vibrant city. It was without doubt the best place I ever worked.
Nobody forces anyone to live in London and many that do not like the pace move away.
London, along with the South east contributes billions to the UK economy. If you want to see how much there are a number of sources available.
The best and the bright migrate from all over the UK and abroad to live and work there.
Some people are jealous and envious of its success. Resentment is a very negative trait.
It’s entirely within the naysayers responsibility to make a similar success of the areas from which they come.
If you don’t think your politicians are standing up for your respective areas then look in a mirror to find the culprits.

Why should they be allowed to stay?
Good grief man. What do you think will happen? The Homeless Police are going to round them up and send them "back to where they came from?"Nothing will happen to them. I can't stand the xenophobia here. You just can't get away from your precious brexit, no matter what the thread title. Thick idiots.

And that's London in a nutshell. Anyone who doesn't live there must be jealous. Or perhaps not bright enough. Nobody forces anyone to live in London and many that do not like the pace move away.

London is only successful by its own measures of success. If yours align with that, great, that's good for you, but those measures are not universally agreed upon.
