Keir Starmer pledges to fix UK housing crisis, calling stable homes a foundation for security and hope

Our house was not just a roof over our heads – it was our home. A place of security and a focal point for our family.

A place to build out from and hope for a better future.

So it is simply shocking that under the long years of Tory rule, so many people across our country were left without a stable place to call their own.

Children were left languishing in temporary accommodation, too often without proper places to play, eat

Underfunding, systemic failure and awful Tory policies bequeathed us a public and private sector housing crisis. As a priority, we will now fix that.
