Sounds like empty rhetoric to me: It creates no extra housing, would take years to implement to any significant degree and is likely to get quietly dropped along the way. I call BS. Of course it’s BS. The only ones who could be fooled by this are innumerate simpletons .

Reducing the amount of housing available for private rent means that rents rise, more people cannot afford that so go on the Council waiting list for Social Housing. You do not solve a shortage of housing by changing the ownership. But you reduce them on social housing waiting list Win win but you have more people on the waiting list - it still does not solve the housing shortage.

Its basic economics - reduce the availability of private rentals the price goes up - price goes up less people can afford it so need social housing. There is only one way to solve a housing shortage - build more houses or reduce demand. Everything else is just fluff.

Until there's a committment to reduce the population, it's all just fluff.

We simply do not have the tradesmen to construct that many homes. My next-door neighbour wants his windows painted and had a guy in for a quote today - they are so overwhelmed with work that the earliest they could fit him in was 2026!..

It’s not hard to understand that if you had any kind of useable private rented accommodation then you would be perma banned to the back of the queue for social housing . It belies the claim that he knows anything about it, let alone experience in it .

If not your housed and not homeless or going to be homeless .
