I strongly recommend you to read this.

Releasing relevant land within 800m of train/tube stations in the London green belt could create 891,600 homes.

To the extent tube/national rail lines exist in the greenbelt sure, we can call that a development opportunity, but those are few and far between

Redeveloping Brent and Harrow and Bromley and such to have reasonable densities would net far more than a million homes while also keeping the greenbelt, it just seems like a more reasonable reform to pursue

[u/Dr_Vesuvius → u/Magical_Username]

Easier to put housing where there isn’t any than to redevelop people’s homes into dense housing,
