Olympics laughing stock

Given that the development of the 'Railway Club McMansions' will take at least four years (ie to Summer 2013) during which a large section of Highgate Road (the nearest proper road to the site) will have to be closed to traffic as it is needed for a staging post for the trucks which will navigate Little Green Street every few minutes, er what about the cycling event scheduled to run up the road to scenic Hampstead?

I can hear the commentary now "And Lance Armstrong pedals past one of the world's 500 places to see before it was lost to greed..."

Mr Left Hand meet Mrs Right hand. Only in Britain can we drop such a monster planning bollock.

They'll have to look out for the traffic problems caused by Prince Charles favorite Architect Quinlan Terry. One of the things the Princes favorite architect is trying to get planning permission for is a Mac Mansion at Fitzroy Farm on the edge of Hampstead Heath. If you look at the documents posted on Camdens Website you will see Mr Terry, a classical Architect is using the approved and recognized level of 'harm' and 'disruption' in the Little Green Street appeal decision as justification!

It is shocking to imagine that our hated decision resulting in five years of 'harm' based at it is on a mistakenly measured road width, is now taken as some sort of benchmark by others [who are thought to know better] as justification for their actions.
