Phoenix on Russia Today News 350mn pounds worth of property empty as social housing wait list grows

Good piece raising awareness of the untold empties,much edited down but got some good points out.
The housing crisis is false and created by restricting the supply,governments allow land banking and buy to leave/rot.Houses should be used for homes not investment banking.
Use the 1.5 milion buildings for homes,community projects and to create employment in their repair and renovation.
Homes for all Squat the lot.
