| Well, until this God forsaken ConDem government ensures every empty property is brought back into use and every new development has a decent proportion of really affordable housing nothing will change. I would also add that local authorities need a bomb under them to get their properties turned round and occupied a.s.a.p. Richmond's Tory council have just approved a huge housing development in Twickenham with not one affordable unit as part of it, God forbid the posh people should have to mix with the peasantry. Yet at the same time the government is proposing to give developers carte blanche to build all over the countryside with hardly any restrictions, I'll leave you to work out how many of those developments will help one homeless person. |
