Slums, speculation, sell-offs and sardines
Tory housing 'u-turn' is woefully inadequate
David Cameron finally seems to have acknowledged the dizzying abyss that free market housing policies have created. Workers are extorted, less and less secure - and squashed like sardines.
Cameron promises action on soggy, downtrodden council estates and the ever-receding bottom rung of the property ladder.
But will his 10,000 new homes really help Britain's 4.4 million private renters?
And will any of England's backlog of half a million planned new homes ever actually be built?
