🚨 NEW: We polled 1,000 British adults about the data centres being built here, and net support for one near where you live sits at -13. The North East is the most supportive region at +11 and Northern Ireland the most opposed at -50. Via @amphiotech (1/8)

‘That’s £190,000 per person…’ ‘We could buy them all a house!” @NickFerrariLBC runs the numbers on the government's pledge to end rough sleeping by Christmas.

Vote Green. Vote unemployment. Vote stagnation. Sorry for the 50 people who would have had jobs. You have been let down by your Councillor.

Applied in 2023 and withdrew after backlash in 2024, made adjustments and re-submitted in 2025. They built it out of bath stone for you people, nicest Lidl I’ve ever seen😭 If it was an M&S, I’d half expect you lot to pick up a trowel and help them.

⚡️ We need to make better use of the vast resources under our feet and rid ourselves of Net Zero madness. That starts with Jackdaw, continues with Rosebank and it should continue with further exploration as well.

Katie couldn’t be more right. Decline is a choice - and we need the political leadership from MPs to champion why building this stuff is vital to sustain and enhance our national quality of life.
We haven't built a reservoir in this country since 1992. So, increasingly, people are being left without running water, for days at a time. It can't go on like this. We have to take on the blockers who veto every project, and get Britain building.

London's housebuilding collapse is a man-made crisis from City Hall, and families are paying the price. A global London is pointless if a local London does not work for families, business, and Londoners. The steady exit of developers from London is now becoming a stampede. I am running for Mayor to make City Hall work for inner and outer London. telegraph.co.uk/business/202…

The latest green belt statistics have been released - can we see grey belt policy in action? The green belt has *increased* in size over the last decade. Although the green belt shrunk last year, if it continued to shrink at the same rate it would last another 3,400 years.

It’s true that there are massive challenges for housebuilding - in many ways the problem has shifted from scarcity of land to the fact you can’t build at a profit. But let’s slash back the policy costs first before juicing the demand side on the same ridiculous cost base.

Maybe building our entire economy around services wasn’t a good idea. But at least we can pivot to physical AI in manufacturing & data centre buildout with our cheap energy and permissive planning system

Developer, British Land has downed tools on one of London’s largest regeneration projects “warning sign that the viability of residential development in the UK capital has reached crunch point.” In other words…not commercially viable. Until the economic mood music changes and rates fall, many a development in the Capital will languish - a promise yet to be fulfilled. @BloombergUK bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Sadiq Khan has made it completely impossible to build anything in London. That alone would be bad enough. But he's also put a Hamas supporter in charge of a development project worth £2.5 billion. Does he *ever* get *anything* right?
Nabil Al-Kinani, an Iraqi refugee who works as a development manager for the Royal Docks, has shared multiple social media posts appearing to praise Hamas, a proscribed terrorist group, and to glorify the October 7 attacks. 🔗:telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10…

Sadiq Khan’s Hamas supporting Development Manager admitted that he LEAKS work secrets. Honestly how is Nabil Al-Kinani still employed by @YourRoyalDocks and @MayorofLondon?

"Policy expert" thinks market rates are set by the courts and not the market.
The rent was reduced to a market rent. That's all the tribunal system does. Enough with the hysterics. This does not meet any reasonable definition of rent control. It's a form of mediation for landlords & tenants. Most landlords are fine with it. Just want proper resourcing.

The state controlling how much rent can be charged is not rent control. I am very intelligent 🥴

100 years ago, England embarked on one of the most successful urban expansion projects in history: the creation of Metroland, beautiful suburbs and towns, strung along the railway lines out of London. Today, @SCP_Hughes, @createstreets and I set out how we can do it again. (1/?)

Kemi is bang on. Britain must become a nation that builds - and at a sensible cost, not block at every turn. I am running for Mayor because London must get building again.
Cliveden House burnt down in 1849. The architect behind Parliament rebuilt it in two years. Now, Parliament has spent over a decade just planning its own repairs. What happened to the country that built things? 👇
