  And that is where it will die.

  Indeed. The headline has overeager use of the present tense clearly!

  The original article says: > Despite this objection from locals, planning permission was granted last year. Which amazes me. Why on earth would Newham approve this? Your article has a clue: > Plans for the Stratford sphere were approved by the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) last year, despite fierce opposition from some locals. I vaguely remember that as part of the olympics "redevelopment", planning powers in this area were transferred from the council to LLDC. Who, being a bunch of unelected quangocrats, don't give a shit about residents, and have signed this off.
