The Great Inertia Sector:
In his emergency Budget this week, Chancellor George Osborne announced he was cutting public sector expenditure by 25 per cent. Unions have declared the cuts irresponsible. But are they?

The Mail knows the true identity of the man - a graduate who has been a planning officer for eight years. But to protect his job, he is writing under an assumed name.

Makes you wonder, so now we know why getting planning permission for anything takes so long, although to be far this is only one London authority, does it happen elsewhere?
