Just over 2 years ago, the Government launched its landmark long-term plan to level up across the UK. In 60 seconds @michaelgove lists all the ways since then that money and power has been moved out of Westminster to overlooked communities around the country. Watch below ⬇️️️
Dear Michael Gove, You have stalled the UK flat market by refusing to implement consumer protection for blocks of flats, creating a three tier flat market and needlessly excluding 1.7 million leaseholders from protection from ruinous remediation costs if their flats are defective. You had the funding available to protect everyone in the form of the Earl of Lytton's buildingsafetyscheme.org. All without relying on the tax payer. No other fully funded solution has been advanced to protect every leaseholder since you considered the scheme. This is still the case. The conservatives will be in danger of leaving government with a legacy of destroying the housing ladder and the home ownership dream in the UK to protect the construction industry who will now carry on bad practice. You can turn this around after Easter in the Lords, implement the Earl of Lytton's buildingsafetyscheme.org amendments and let's end the #BuildingSafetyCrisis for all. Your legacy depends on it. Regards Over 63,000 people backing the Earl of Lytton's buildingsafetyscheme.org
