For those following the Tax Credit saga you'll probably be aware that the House of Lords has stuck up a metaphorical two fingers to Osborne's planned cuts. I watched the debate. I think it is the first time I have ever watched a HoL debate. I was glued to the screen. Here's some more info for those wishing/needing to know what happened, why, and what might happen next. ...

"Please could someone in TDC planning let me know what has been agreed between the developer, Redrow, and TDC re the SANGS provision for the above development.
