Council Housing is the only way.

Council housing, even if new stock could be afforded by our cash-strapped local authority, will only be of any interest to a minority.

Most aspire to own their own home.

Only 60% of people can now afford to buy their own home. And this is falling, rapidly. There is a shortage of houses. Therefore prices are sky high to buy and to rent.

Public investment in new affordable homes will help everyone. It will free up other homes for people to rent or to buy.

Most politicians at the top recognise that they need a public house building programme, even the Tories, but they don’t want to do it.It is not just homes but building and skills when it comes to growing the economy. They will have to put some money aside to do it, despite the grant cuts, because only local authority can do it. The machinery at local level would… Read more »

I would suggest that there is a ready supply of cheap housing available in the northern half of the country. The policies that are needed are ones to create employment in areas other than the south-east, allowing people to re-populate the north.

Local authorities don’t build anymore, it’s down to housing associations to build subsidised housing. But, the Govt has taken away housing subsidy, so housing associations are not building them anymore. You can’t build subsidised housing if there is no subsidy. The crisis will only get worse, the govt knows this, but is keeping very quiet about it.

“Oxford is officially the UK’s least affordable city to live in.” No. Recent reports say that Singapore is the most expensive followed by Paris.

There isn’t a housing shortage.

It’s an overcapacity of people…

Almost everybody is ducking that issue, which is why it’s only getting worse & putting so much pressure on housing & other resources.

@Steve Goodman. How many buildings in the UK , which could* be habitable, are left to degradation and disrepair and also the perfectly good ones, albeit requiring retrofit, are earmarked for demolition to make-way for *upmarket development*? Having said that, the vast majority of existing buildings are so energy and ecologically inefficient that they render themselves as a liability anyway. I don’t think it’s enough to simply… Read more »

Any serious recession has had to have housebuilding to start any real recovery.

@Milly. If we’re to use history as a datum of previous predicaments, then yes, but…that/this was no recession*, it’s serious enough, but it’s not something we’re going to tackle with a tweaking here and there and head for *growth* as a means of recovery*. We will do well to achieve a coherent level of *stability* and that’s without the distraction of that favoured word growth. Sure some… Read more »

@Cicero, State/central funded and underwritten, yes, also private not for profit, or at least..not solely for. Co-operative, self build, co-housing models able to draw on accessible funds with strict criteria of overall design with form following function and if that can also be intertwined with beneficial economic activity…then all the better. Yes, that somewhat flies in the face of ‘growth’, but then..so do bank bailouts and the… Read more »
