The Housing Question No 11: Disasters happen and they walk away

The Housing Question, my newsletter over on Substack, is the other place to find my writing on everything to do with housing.

The latest edition considers the parallels between the Post Office and building safety scandals and asks what it takes to break into the public consciousness and hold people to account. It also looks at government action and inaction on poor housing and why longer-term mortgages are not a quick fix. You can subscribe here (it’s free for now).
