  • Communist Party Charter for Housing
    n HOUSING PROFITS VS HOUSING NEED The 2008 financial crisis was precipitated by the sub-prime mortgage scandal in the US caused by the banks lending more than the value of property on an industrial scale. This triggered an international financial crisis. House prices HOMES collapsed as they did in the recession of 1990/91 caused by high inflation and interest rates. When housing is seen as a financial investment there is pressure to restrict supply in the hope of raising prices. This has led to decades of underinvestment and a huge imbalance between supply and demand, affecting millions of people in Britain. Landowners profit from speculative land values, driven by developers whose prime motive is enriching their shareholders and FOR THE who fight their obligations to deliver affordable homes with the threat of refusing to develop land they own. In England, the Government sets targets on the number of homes to be delivered in each local housing area, and with the extension of rules on so-called permitted developments – the conversion of commercial buildings into housing – means English planning authorities and local communities are almost powerless to influence the shape of a built environment which is increasingly developer-led and determined by land availability, rather than local PEOPLE need. It results in the wrong homes, of the wrong tenure, being built in the wrong places, unable to meet assessed housing need. Different rules apply in Scotland and Wales. In Scotland, the Scottish Government’s social housing grants are welcome but the building rate by Councils and housing associations is only half of what is needed.
