Of course Britain needs renewable energy infrastructure and more houses. But Rachel Reeves has laid out a ruinous path, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

I don’t endorse this article but it is a thought-provoking take. Personally, I think instead of “densifying” cities we should be doing the opposite - incentivize building new homes and business investment in lower-populated areas of the country.

    Perhaps OP means densify lower population towns, i.e. build them upward, not outward.

    Build up, create new green focused mixed-use dense town centres with street votes to involve the local community in the planning stages, particularly with the aesthetics and amenities.

    I’d be in favour of both because we need another mega city/cities in the north to redress the power imbalance that skews heavily towards London and it’s commuter belt.
