Ahh yes because the only destiny of large buildings in London is high-end retail and luxury flats for the wealthy. That's what holds us back as a country, isn't it? Not enough places for the very very very rich.

I didn't at all say or suggest I would have preferred it to stay derelict. It's an absurd straw man.

There are many things that project could have been, for London, that it is not.

But if that's the only way you see progress — the creation of places for foreign wealth to be spent — then yeah, I am holding the UK back from that miserable dystopia.
