Housing news: Government's plans for 1,300 new homes under threat as colony of endangered spiders discovered
Plans to build over 1,300 new homes in Kent have been halted due to the discovery of an endangered spider species, the distinguished jumping spider, leading to a designation of the site as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. This setback impacts a £300 million government-backed project aimed at creating a new town.

The halt in construction at Ebbsfleet Garden City, which was expected to provide much-needed housing, has drawn criticism from officials who argue that environmental regulations are obstructing economic growth. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between development and environmental protection in the UK.
