Listened to SD on R4 and it is clear he has not yet grasped the situation. He talks about affordable. He talks about solving problems by building more and streamlining the planning and putting on stringent time tables for development but sadly he never said where the buyers are going to come from. I met yesterday a couple both with degrees living in the west country and working. Their combined wage 36k. They will never be able to purchase an "Affordable Home". Tinkering in markets and social engineering are a poison chalice for SJ
