In a town of fewer than 4,000 people, a row is unfolding that tells you almost everything you need to know about modern Britain: the increasingly bitter stand-off between NIMBYs and YIMBYs.
The village of Theydon Bois, in Essex, is currently in uproar. Proposals to build 150 new homes on a stretch of green belt land beside its tube station have drawn fierce opposition from the local MP, councillors, and multiple residents’ groups.
That backlash has, in turn, provoked its own online argument
