Housing and Planning Bill

Proceeding contribution from Karen Buck (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 May 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Housing and Planning Bill.

We need a policy to fit all parts of the country, including London. In inner London, however, starter homes will come in at £450,000. We have to speak the language of priorities. Is the Minister really telling us that a home that requires an income of £77,000 a year—more than an MP’s salary—is genuinely the best priority for public funds?
