Labour Demolishes HCA Affordable Homes Stats

Report shows 13,549 housing starts on site and 11,867 housing completions delivered through HCA  programmes in England from April to September this year. Now Labour has demolished latest HCA stats showing a ‘rise’ in the number of affordable homes being built. Shadow secretary of state for housing, John Healey, says the stats in fact show a 98% fall in new social rented homes. Healey said: “These shocking new figures show that in the six months before the chancellor’s so-called ‘housing Budget’, the number of new government-funded homes for social rent fell by 98% compared to Labour’s last year in office.” Read more on 24housing.
