Housing is a Step Up the Ladder
Tuesday 28th February 2023
For most of us, having a house or flat is something to be cherished.The role of Housing Minister is anything but cherished by aspirational MP’s. Tories have treated the role as a mere stepping stone on the way to higher office.I suspect the civil servants in the Housing Dept are quietly delighted by the high turnover of Ministers as it allows them to pursue their own pet projects under the influence of left-wing lobbying groups like Generation Rent.There are currently 17 Secretaries of State within the Cabinet. Precedent allows for 21.We need a Secretary of State for Housing, peeled away from Communities and Levelling up.Let’s make the important role of housing the nation something to aspire to.
