Many young people are struggling to get on the housing ladder🏠. Our new building flexibilities will ensure that more houses are built in the right places🏘️. So that this generation and future generations to come are able to own their own homes👍.

Quick visit to the amazing Jack Steinberg Critical Care Unit @KingsCollegeNHS to say thanks for not killing off the old boy!!! Truly amazing people and so lovely that they remembered him from the end of last year (and that he doesn’t remember any of it!). Thank you isn’t enough!
