Didn’t Sweden also do this when its incoming hard-right government scrapped the high-speed rail project a few years ago?

Basically, yes.

They will not do well when the day of judgement arrives. Fucking bandits.

Well, the link is to The London Economic, so what govt do you think it is?

Well, the community is called "Europe" and the post title is a clickbaity "Govt is selling land". There are many countries and governments in Europe and post titles should be informative.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London%2C_Ontario

London is at the confluence of the Thames River...its economic activity is centered on...financial services...London annexed nearly the entire township of Westminster...

As per the 2021 census, the most common ethnic or cultural origins in London are English (21.9%), Scottish (17.4%), Irish (16.8%)...

London's city centre mall was first opened in 1960 as Wellington Square

Although London has many ties to Middlesex County...

London stretches...east to Dorchester

London proved a centre of strong Tory support...

Fancy a stroll along the banks of the Thames River, possibly crossing over it using Blackfriars Bridge? Or perhaps doing a little shopping in Covent Garden Market before visiting St. Paul's Cathedral?

I'm impressed at the level of dedication there. It doesn't appear to have its own Big Ben, though.

EDIT:

London[80]

  • China Nanjing, China

Definitely missed an opportunity there, Canada. Could have been twins with London, UK.

I think it’s a mistake. I think that the land should be kept for at least two or three years to...look at what can be done within that space

I mean, I assume that whoever buys it is going to do the same. It's probably not going to become some deserted wasteland.
