Angela Rayner set up to fail

[billysboy]

I can help think that Angela Rayner has been set up to fail on her housing targets
having promised to build ( not convert old offices ) 1.5m new homes by the end of her term the government seems woefully behind
for the next 4 years 370k homes will need to be built each year to achieve this as currently 225 k new homes last year

I can’t help think that she is doomed to fail without massive planning reforms and a huge social housing building programme

I imagine this was exactly the reason she got the job! Her ideas are to actually change things, not please house builders who are doing very nicely already!

Criticise to your heart’s content. Just don’t use disgraceful language. Plenty of other posters who dislike the current government manage it.

Most ministers haven't worked in the field they are responsible for, though. It would be good if they had perhaps.

I will criticise all all i like thanks, I don't need or ask for your permission. Getting posts removed that you disagree with just goes to show why more people are now voting reform and libour and thick Angela are tanking.

MNHQ removed your posts, not "the left".🤣

I

yep, I think you've hit the nail on the head there with 'career civil servants'.

I knew it! I bet you think Connelly and Yaxley-Lennon are/were political prisoners.

MMM may be you should understand how moderation works, some one has to report for MN to take action, also we have no idea who the moderators are or what their political leanings are but you can hazard a guess when you see what goes and what remains.😂

Your posts were presumably removed because they breached the guidelines. I didn't report them but someone obviously did. Take it up with MNHQ if you don't like it.

Rayner and her team do have a reputation in the industry for dunnings-kruger syndrome. That won't help her.
The big house builders may just wait it out until Labour get desperate enough to start bending the rules (which benefits the house builders) and throwing money around.

When did I say I don't like it, quite contrary it backs up what I'm saying. Look at the polls and who is backing whom in the political landscape, shutting people down and blocking speech because of hurty words are why people are now turning to alternative parties, I say good let them continue. 😂

Doesn’t look as if they’ll be allowed to wait it out. We now have a government that’s actually governing.

New rules may take unfinished housing sites off developers https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj42wz92rl0o

hurty words 🙄

😂

I was very tempted to respond to your first sentence with a laughing emoji. As its you, I shall refrain.

We just need "snowflake " and "woke" to complete the bingo card.

Paragraph, not sentence.

Thank you but I’m not precious about emojis. 😉

Have you given up on Starmer now then? Is it Rayner all the way?

Oldham is going to build some flats.
Which is funny. As they've just pulled down one lot of flats just outside the centre.
You can't put families in flats. It just doesn't work well for so many reasons.
Society needs stability to create community.
We need nice houses. But we need to look at why we keep needing to build more houses.
Student migration is huge - and changes communities. And then a high percentage apparently claim asylum when their student visa is about to expire.

Oldham are building about 800 flats. Which is enough for yesterday's channel arrival number.

Can’t speak for @blossomtoesof course. But I haven’t. It’s not a presidency-lots of people are involved.

And if they built the houses where there was infrastructure (transport, doctors, schools) not in the countryside (which they are destroying) where many people move to without jobs or the prospect of them. Not everyone is a remote worker

I didn’t realise it had to be one or the other.

Yes, bonkers. And that should be the first reform of it

I like the privilege of saying families need houses not flats. What they need is housing; flats are a good start. I think we are some way from saying everyone needs a house!
