Cameron calls for ‘crusade’ to build more homes
“Over the next five years we will show that the deep problems in our society – they are not inevitable”, said Mr Cameron.
However, Corbyn’s spokesman has defended his leader and said that the personal attack made by the PM on Corbyn was an indication of insecurity caused to Cameron as the Labour Party seems to re-energise once again.
Dan Wilson Craw, policy manager at pressure group Generation Rent, told the BBC that starter homes would not benefit those who are genuinely struggling to buy a house and called on Cameron to emphasize on social housing.
Besides launching his housing crusade, Mr Cameron will also devote large parts of his conference speech to the economy and Europe.
“Two of the biggest issues facing Britain today and the Prime Minister has no clear strategy, he can make no honest promise, and he already has an utterly dismal record in office, proving that he cannot, and will not deliver on anything”.
Defence secretary Michael Fallon said the UK Government would only seek approval “when we are sure we are going to win it” after Mr Cameron was defeated in 2013 over a similar escalation.
“With cuts to tax credits and a continued failure on housing, his claim that the Conservatives are the party of working people is being exposed”. If you work hard and earn a living, the party is on your side. “This is a welcome sign that many rank-and-file Labour supporters want to keep us focused on the immediate concerns of the public rather than re-running old battles that risk splitting Labour apart”, he said.
“Hopefully the positive messages will filter down to the constituents and we can tackle all of the things David has set out”.
Mr Cameron told party members, MPs and the press: “Ten years ago I stood on a stage quite like this one, and I said that if we changed our party, we could change our country”.
‘We have to have a nationally recognized promotion to get houses developed, ‘ the person will say.
At the Conservatives’ conference in the northern English city of Manchester, government ministers have poached a few of their Labour opponents’ policies such as investing in new infrastructure and childcare programmes.
The announcement came during his keynote speech to the Conservative Party Conference.
But Conservatives say it will actually mean more homes are built, because it will become economically viable for developers to press ahead with new building projects which would be unprofitable under the current arrangements.
