Britain’s housing market is unfair. House prices are over eight times average earnings. Social housebuilding rates have sharply declined, and homelessness is high. How can the Liberal Democrats ensure the government delivers the sustainable and affordable housing Britain needs?

Speakers:

  • Lee Dillon MP, Member of Parliament for Newbury
  • Max Wilkinson MP, Member of Parliament for Cheltenham
  • Anna Clarke, Director of Policy and Public Affairs at The Housing Forum
  • Sophie Metcalfe, Researcher at the Institute for Government
  • Tristan Robinson, Director of External Affairs and Social Value at Thakeham

This event was chaired by Nehal Davison, Programme Director at the Institute for Government.
