The Housing Crisis Is Getting Worse - Can Andy Burnham Change That?

Britain needs more homes, but what's really stopping us from building them? This week on Clive's Little Bit Extra, we unpack the UK's housing crisis and ask whether the government's ambitions can become reality.Following Andy Burnham's announcement to unveil the biggest council housebuilding programme since the postwar period about the future of housebuilding, we hear from Chris Carr of Carr & Carr Builders, who argues that SME builders must play a bigger role if Britain is serious about delivering the next generation of council homes.Plus, architect Andrew Waugh explains how engineered timber and modern methods of construction could transform the way we build - speeding up delivery while reducing environmental impact! Subscribe to Clive's Little Bit Extra and catch Clive Holland weekdays from 12–3pm on Fix Radio.Catch Clive On Fix Radio Monday - Thursday 12 PM - 3 PM Across The UK On DAB Radio And Online At https://www.fixradio.co.uk/
