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.


The Nine Elms and Battersea developments aren't just about the power
station site, which has been undeveloped through at least two boom and
bust cycles.
