"What is at stake, according to all sides of the argument, is nothing less than the economic and spiritual future of the nation. We are in danger of 'denying future generations to come', says architect Lord Foster. It is about the importance of our 'world-class natural environment', says the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.
"It
could be a 'white elephant' that would deal a near-fatal blow to our
economy, says Sir Terry Farrell, another leading architect. Also at
stake is national identity: how much Britain should try to match growing
countries such as China, and how much we should do our own thing."
