The reality of Reform UK government revealed.

If the problem is too difficult, pretend it doesn't exist.

Why did the residents of North Northamptonshire that seems to be proud of the fact that it is refusing to carry out one of the duties they are required to carry out. Councillors should be housing the homeless not employing accountants. Housing the homeless is more cost effective than looking after them, proven fact in many countries including the USA (who consoled that fact). Housing those with low incomes give the council an income is rent is proportional to income and the homes are designed and built by council staff. Again a proven fact, since humungous profits to feed to shareholders are not required.

In my career as an architect I have designed the regeneration of a council estate such that there were 150% of the same sized homes, gardens and off-street parking. The energy bills can also be substantially reduced to zero if required. If either unitary authority need solutions talk to the professionals NOT the amateurs like Farage.

Amazing statistics on the numbers and no wonder Northnorthants want to disband the Social Housing application register alongside most of all their other responsibilities……maybe the last out should just switch the lights off!
