From the developers whom will reap the financial benefits perhaps? I'm
not against a loan in the general per se, just against a taxpayer-
subsidised and guaranteed one, especially given the site's history of
financial imploding.


So best not to invest in some wastrel scheme to redevelop old docks the
other end of London then? After all the docks business imploded.
