Another luxury housing development being built while thousands languish on the housing waiting list, pay huge rents for inadequate accommodation or literally sleep on the streets. The Socialist Party supported the Acorn demo against it on 14 August.

The Green-led council should use their reserves and borrowing powers to build council houses. And the Labour Party should demand the same.
