New Towns Will Be Boring, Soulless and Full of Roundabouts, Say Voters
13th August 2025
The vast majority of voters fear Labour’s new towns will fail, describing their predecessors as soulless, boring, concrete and full of “roundabouts”.
Town planners are urging ministers to let new town residents design their own homes and experiment with styles and approaches to avoid a repeat of the top-down and rigid post-war generation of new settlements, which remain divisive.
Next month ministers will receive recommended locations for about a dozen new towns which will contain hundreds of thousands of homes. Sir Keir Starmer wants building to begin before the end of this parliament. Ministers have promised to drive through local opposition to towns they deem in the national interest.
“That’s Britain,” I hear you say, “That’s not here; who cares?” Because Britain is a leading indicator of how Wokery is derailing our lives. Shitty things they do there will appear here sooner or later because the same mindset infects the Ruling Class in both places. What Labour is doing is what Democrats would love to do, but can’t easily because of our famous Checks And Balances [TM]–and believe me, Democrats are watching what happens in Britain very carefully.
