House building fallen again

House building rates in England have fallen

201,000 homes got their first Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) in the 12 months to June 2025, down 8% from the year before, continuing a fall that began under the Conservatives. Rayner said 1.5 million new homes would be built equivalent to 300,000 a year.

Separately reported that right to buy has cost the country £200bn under Tory and Labour selling off council housing at a discount, now leaving 112,000 families in short term accommodation.

Private landlords disincentivised with the 5% stamp duty surcharge, and holiday homes / airbnb being sold off at a pace with doubling council tax.

Labours housing policies not looking great, will it recover

In her latest misguided move, Rayner has approved the sale by councils of allotments for building. An ancient charter requires that only Westminster can permit allotment sales. Allotments that have been in families for generations are being grabbed. So much for the welfare and wellbeing of Labour's electors.

No.

Just another Labour fantasy.

Bloody good.

Too many people in the world already.

Don't encourage any more by offering them accommodation.

Oops! I forgot, someone will miss out on the opportunity to make money.

Pensioners, farmers, disabled and now potentially 330,000 allotment holders under threat.
