talkRADIO’s Julia Hartley-Brewer has challenged the Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick over a new planning reform to make property developers pay more to local authorities. It follows bias allegations against the Cabinet minister earlier this year. “Surely you can understand why people think it’s a bit hypocritical...that you got involved in a planning decision involving millionaire Richard Desmond...and you overruled your own planning experts to approve that development deliberately so he could avoid a £45 million levy to Tower Hamlets council?”
