Burnham’s council housing goal
The article discusses Andy Burnham’s plan to significantly expand council housebuilding in the UK to address the right-to-buy effects and long waiting lists for social housing. He aims for a large-scale public housing program modeled after postwar initiatives, but faces challenges such as limited local authority powers, construction delays, and reliance on private developers. Burnham’s approach emphasizes giving councils greater control to ensure affordable, high-quality homes for low-income families and tackling the sluggish progress toward national housing targets.
