Let Mayors Cook
Plus more BBC NIMBY bias, and why we need to redraw London's boroughs and make everyone mad.
On YIMBY Pod this week:
James talks about how Rachel Reeves’ plan to give mayor a slice of income tax could help get infrastructure built.
Martin digs into two more BBC Local Democracy Reporting Service stories with an alarming NIMBY slant
And we speak to Simon Kaye, Director of Policy and Research at Re:State, about his new report, arguing for a more powerful London Mayor and fewer London boroughs!
James’s newsletter is here, his latest on our geospatial data mess is here.
Martin’s newsletter is here, and his latest video is here.
