  • Somebody on ConservativeHome actually wrote a reasonable piece about 15 minute cities and why they are "not a Socialist plot", but dear gods the comments.

  • Whilst not surprising the comments are just insane, it's hard to comprehend what planet these people live on.

    Fair play to the LondonEnviroment user having the energy to engage with those nut jobs, equal parts exhausting and demoralising. It's pretty much impossible to have any optimism for the country isn't it?

  • dear gods the comments

    A couple of people do get stuck in arguing in favour but the first few which respond to the headline "Fifteen-minute cities are not a socialist plot" with "Fifteen-minute cities ARE a socialist plot!"...

    Haha there’s an insinuation there I’m not happy about 😆

    Yeah mad that the idea of a Conservative who might support it is so inbelievable.

  • The author is a bit of an odd one, in that he’s generally very reasonable about active travel and town planning, but the only thing underpinning those beliefs appears to be his obsession with historic architectural styling, and total hatred of anything after 1945.

    It would be great if conservatives could actually include people and lived experience in their arguments, but even the good ones just seem to want to wander around a leafy village wearing red trousers, and be considered progressive for it.

  • i wondered if that was just commissioned so that the tories could farm the comments for more of their wildness
