Them Afghans have got to live somewhere.Why does London need 300,000 more people?
Why stop at golf courses, there are football pitches, rugby pitches, bowling greens, tennis courts (hello Wimbledon). If we really want to build let's concrete some parks, Regents is pretty handy for the centre of London.

Still mainly green, hopefully, although stretching that one ?. I think it is appalling that people are so keen to concrete over green spaces. Once gone that's it, you can't get them back. We need green areas for wildlife, for general environmental reasons, water absorption, human wellbeing.Wimbledon have just purchased Wimbledon Park GC to turn into practice courts and parking!

You could certainly house a lot of people in there ?You forgot Buckingham Palace as well.
Interesting fact (or not, perhaps) that the report glosses over.
It says London has 1 in 20 of the UK's golf courses. But doesn't mention that 1 in 7 of the UK's population lives here. We're under represented and need more courses.
