Housing: Long-term Plan

Proceeding contribution from Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 February 2016. It occurred during Opposition day on Housing: Long-term Plan.

We are indeed proud of that record, and I thank the Minister for extolling it so beautifully. Does he agree that it is a radical departure from that record to move from Help to Buy, which the coalition Government used to spread the opportunity to buy a home to many people across the county, to right to buy, which will help only a tiny fraction of people and do nothing for those facing very high rents, or build more homes in this country? Is that not a radical departure from the preceding excellent record that the Minister has been extolling so well?
