9 August 2023 Though GLA didn’t have the decency to tell us – or anyone else (?) – when they actually published findings from the winter’s “deliberative/engagement” Planning for London sessions , these did actually appear in the location where they said all the material would be. The findings are write-ups by the GLA’s consultants (2cv) of discussions held with carefully-chosen participants representative of London’s diversity. Our first impression is that the emphasis is on how much Londoners and their opinions vary. There does not seem to be any emphasis on which variations are particular to which population groups.
