Where in the South East shall we decree a glorious new conurbation with room for a million souls and easy commutes to London?

The ones from Jersey are better than the one from Lincolnshire.

Nonsense. Give me a hearty Maris Piper over a bootlicking Jersey Royal anyday.

London doesn't build high enough, or underground enough. We need more skyscrapers for housing and more deep level underground spaces for superclubs, bowling alleys, prisons, cinemas, supermarkets and other stuff not essential for daylight.

"We need more skyscrapers for housing"
You may, but most people would rather not live in skyscrapers.
Most people in houses and flats would not like to be overlooked by skyscrapers.
I have seen what has happened near Tottenham Hale Station, and it looks like a set of barracks for robots.

As a compromise, let’s put all the skyscrapers and subterranean multipurpose cinema-bowling-prison-workhouse facilities in south London.

Yeah but that's the problem with London. Too many mediocre 'high rises' which lack imagination and space, and then too many people who bitch and moan about there being no housing stock. If they actually built higher and better they wouldn't look so shit, and there would be more housing for all. And they wouldn't have to wreck the countryside so much in the commuter belt with these crap Barratt style new build estates which all look the same and lack imagination.

Glastonbury is too far from civilisation, unfortunately.

how happy the denizens of glasto must be to know you'd never go there
