A2 Dominion variation in planning application for #156WEL— driven by greed, ignoring housing need... and over 1,200 objections from local residents. #WestHampstead #Whamp savewesthampstead.wordpress.…

Bless these guys! Putting the 'development' into 'Neighbourhood Forum', with inconsistent approaches to planning applications (1) AND colluding with a key player in the Westminster Homes for Votes gerrymandering scandal (2).

Hi @CamdenCouncil. Nice and reassuring letter in our building today. That now makes it no fire extinguisher, no fire doors, no smoke alarms and no sprinkler system. 😐 #Camden #Grenfell
Over four hours since being notified, Camden have not enabled #156WEL comments; the 'Comments Until' date remains 22 September. Once again it appears that Camden are doing everything possible to minimise public engagement with what is a far worse proposal than the original.
Comments for the INCOMPLETE #156WEL variation closed on 17 October. Cllr Beales stated the comment period would be extended. Comments period has 'extended' to 22 September, which is an extension of exactly MINUS 26 DAYS. "Incompetent" doesn't quite cover #BackToTheFuture Camden.
Important information for @camdentalking @DannyBeales @Georgia_Gould @Olszewski_R whose housing 'strategy' (if it can even be called that) bequeathed to them by Theo Blackwell MBE, is possible only until such time as there are no publicly owned assets left to sell-off.
No the truth is we can only build the homes we need, ie social rent homes, with significant government investment. Cross subsidy never did and never will produce the number of social rent homes required to overcome the housing crisis. Let’s not kid ourselves it can @insidehousing
There's a great #156WEL article by @dannycarrier in today's @NewJournal. See the Property News section on p22. We'll follow-up with a link to the online version of the article as soon as it goes live. Many thanks to Dan and the CNJ for their continued coverage of #StopTheBlocks.

We would be remiss not to draw attention to this insulting "not a referendum" comment. SWHSTB's detailed objections, and many of the 1,200 others lodged against #156WEL proposals, highlighted absolutely legitimate and serious #Camden & London Plan material planning breaches.
Meanwhile #Camden want to crowbar into #WestHampstead another few hundred residents with an A2 Dominion proposal for #156WEL that, in its latest incarnation, deliberately fails (for profit) to deal with Camden's actual housing needs. Narrow pavements may be even more overcrowded.
After #Camden repeatedly failed to post site notices, four days on from the comments function closing, and two days after assurances that the comments period would be extended, it is still not possible to add comments on a2dominion's planning policy-breaching #156WEL 'variation'.
Meanwhile, to Camden's shame, genuinely progressive @UKLabour councils build 100% genuinely affordable, sustainable, eco-friendly, Passivhaus council homes with secure tenancies at target rents, and win acclaim, kudos and RIBA awards for doing so. architecture.com/knowledge-a… #156WEL
