Can’t build on dirt, can’t demolish old Victorian mcmansions, can’t build high because of the skyline boomers, can’t build infrastructure because budgets are drained by endless consultancies to funnel money to the private sector etc etc.

Nation of nothing.

In the 60s the UK built the entire city of Milton Keynes with all its endless cycle highways and incredibly walkable design for less than 1/4th the cost of the HS2 thus far and we have literally not built any of it yet even.

.

Adjusted for inflation, it’s £11b Vs £40b.
