Libdems call for Decent Houses (copy 1)
Housing policy has recently become a vital part of all political parties' agendas and those who remember the last mortgage crisis under the Conservatives will never want to experience the same situation again. The Liberal Democrats have developed a range of policies to combat the present situation that help those effected while taking action to replenish our stock of social housing. This, a safety net of houses to rent in England, has fallen by 450,000 from 1997-2006 to just 3.936 million as the number of households on social housing waiting lists has risen almost 70% to 1.67 million.
