Ipsos Politics & Society Podcast: Housing – what needs to happen next?

Ben Marshall (Ipsos Research Director) chats all things housing with industry experts Gavin Smart (Chief Executive, Chartered Institute of Housing), Gráinne Gilmore (Head of Research, Zoopla), Darren Baxter (Senior Policy Advisor, Joseph Rowntree Foundation) and Jules Birch (Freelance writer/journalist for Inside Housing). In this episode, the guests aim to answer “Housing – what needs to happen next?” The discussion covers: ‘Prices and people’ – the market and what’s happening, housing within the cost-of-living crisis ‘Priorities and policy’ – what should the focus be in the short- and long-term? what has worked? what will work? ‘Politics and progress’ – why is housing a ‘third order’ focus for politicians? Where and why do (or don’t!) we see progress?
