It's Crispin's last comment that is so poignant: "We keep going because planning is where we can create value. The difficulties still aren’t big enough to stop us." The point here is perhaps that if the barriers were less then we would having the housing we need. We don't. If the planning system won't supply this most basic need, then it really is time to radically change the way it works. This is one issue the RIBA needs to keep at the top of its campaigning agenda.
