Tbh i won't trust any media with this sort of thing. The way i look at it is all media is supported by some form of political party so will be biased. People should be doing their own reading into the different parties and making their own mind up rather than just watching the news at 6 which will list some seriously over inflated issues and bang on about how we are all going to die tomorrow because of a new law being discussed.
Affordable housing is built in London and is available in London. All multiple occupancy new builds in this country must give a minimum of 30% affordable. The definition of affordable for a particular area is based on the average wage for that area. For example, if i told you a new development in Clapham i have been working on currently which has 55% affordable living and a 1 bed flat under said affordable living scheme costs a shade over 300k, you would probably say that is an unreal amount. I would agree with you but the average wage is going to be substantially more than somewhere like Leeds for example.
One other thing i will say is i work for a company that specialise in the residential sector and we just can not cope with how quickly we are growing currently. We are growing this quickly because of the amount of new housing being built or reinvestment into older housing. Although i do this in London, we are a national company and this is happening to us all over the country.
