I'd be more concerned if it missed the Building Control process, rather than the planning.

How would that work then if there's no requirement to submit plans?

You have to submit a building regs notice for any extension even if it doesn't need planning. You could probably ignore it if you wished, but you could do that with planning permission too. You might be more likely to get caught building without planning permission as I don't think building regs submissions can be checked on council websites in the same way. However it would probably still get asked for if a mortgage surveyor noticed a recent extension.
I don't get how its going to help developers much though. Planning permission isn't difficult or overly expensive as long as you're not in a listed building or proposing to do anything stupid, which is what its supposed to prevent anyway.

If I were a Tory MP in anything other than a gold-plated safe seat I'd be very worried right now. Looks as if the current incumbents have accepted that they'll only be a single-term government and are actively getting their snouts - and those of their mates - as deeply in the trough as possible while it lasts.

It's a concern, especially that thirteen years wasn't enough to wind back even half of the damage that the previous tory administration had wrought and that was through a relative boom, compared to the prevailing economic conditions.
Labour could do worse than look back at the proposals and actions under Attlee and to a lesser extent Gaitskell. There's a dire need for affordable, social housing and with a little imagination, it shouldn't be too difficult to find the investment to finance such projects.

I can't decide whether these morons have detestable faces because we know what they're like, or having a detestable face is a prerequisite of this c*ntlition government
