YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe UK has a housing crisis - but with Liz Truss likely to be "decapitated" in 2 years, she won't ever solve it, argues Hashi Mohamed.
The New Statesman’s senior associate editor Rachel Cunliffe speaks to Hashi Mohamed, author of A Home of One’s Own, which draws on his own history of housing insecurity and his professional career as a planning barrister, about how we came to this point and what can be done.
Mohamed argues the planning system and housing market are "trying to do too many things" between providing a public good, but also attempting to make profit.
They discuss the segregating and alienating effects of housing insecurity, why successive governments have failed to act on this crisis, and how they can be persuaded that it’s a priority.
