I can see what you want, and wasn't talking about mass development.fair points. I'm just taking the view of having people feed off their own land and having the freedom to build their own homes on said land. That's important imho. That's not the same as just selling farmland for large scale property development (where profits will be split across the land seller, property developers and councils via stamp duty). Funny how the vast majority of these newbuilds end up being built by listed companies close to the govt (like Barratt)
(that's another matter, and ministers who accept cash from developers should be boiled alive. I'll stoke the fire)
I, for one, am glad there is still some check, otherwise every land sale would be split down into 5-10 acre plots so folks like yourself could build your dream home.
What a nightmare scenario...the end of properly rural England.
