Gove needs to box clever to solve the housing crisis

If Michael Gove is serious about fixing the broken property ladder, as reported in The Mail on Sunday last week, shaking up banking rules is not the answer, as it will simply help increase house prices.

Mr Gove has a golden opportunity to level up the UK by thinking outside the box when it comes to building homes for people on average earnings.

One reason people find it hard to get on the housing ladder is that buy-to-let investors snap up so many cheaper properties.

What a pity Michael Gove was not occupying his present position when Cala Homes was given permission to destroy our village’s last rural lane by cramming 44 dwellings on what was once an attractive water meadow.
