"The koala population
in the Burbank bushland (south-east Queensland) ...has suffered massive losses in the past 20-30 years."

"...Those little ones cross roads, walk into backyards with dogs or trip into swimming pools … we've had all of those types of koalas rescued..."

Strapping tracking collars around their necks and buzzing the marsupial with thermal drones will now help monitor the sprawling urbanisation, cars and dogs?

Councillor criticises grey belt claims surrounding Burntwood housing development plans

https://lichfieldlive.co.uk/2025/12/05/councillor-criticises-grey-belt-claims-surrounding-burntwood-housing-development-plans/

Dire statements from the #OBR head this morning.
Said #housebuilding stagnation is due to #planning restrictions and we should build on #GreenBelt.
No mention of the 1 million plus unbuilt homes for which developers have permission.
Swallowed #DeveloperLobby propaganda.
See https://www.communityplanningalliance.org/uploads/1/3/9/4/139430416/241211_homes_for_everyone_finaldec24_cpa.pdf last section.

There should be an update of the Planning Policy Guidance soon too?
Also a ministerial letter.
Some headlines:
Less pressure on #GreenBelt Slight easing of bonkers housing targets, sanctions on #developers that #landbank when have planning permission.
