British tech entrepreneur Alex Depledge, co-founder of new architecture platform Resi.co.uk and Dave Hill, editor of On London discuss London’s fragmented property market and why people are now more likely to build out than move out. With Blackstock policy expert Ayrton Dhillon.

The removal of Haringey’s council leader and many of its councillors, together with the jeopardy the council's development deal with Lendlease now finds itself in has been called, by some, a “victory for the people”. But former councillor Charles Wright believes left-wing campaigners have thrown away the only realistic chance the council had to deliver vital new housing. As May’s council elections loom, should developers be concerned?

Renowned journalist Dave Hill and Assael’s Russell Pedley discuss what changes London could be hit with if Labour take control, as expected, of the majority of London councils this May and how this will effect its housing market.

Following the publication of the draft revised National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), Andrew Teacher sits down with Mark Farmer, founder and CEO of Cast, and Russell Pedley, co-founder and director at Assael Architecture. The group discusses the potential impacts on the industry and consumers, and also the implications for the wider planning system.

A political red mist is descending over London and it’s getting thicker. Blackstock policy experts Andrew Teacher and Ayrton Dhillon discuss what the upcoming council elections could mean for the housing and property sector in the capital. Towing the balance between getting homes, profit and ensuring developers do the right thing will never be perfect, but the current mayor has been far more pragmatic than many feared. But with economic and market volatility also impacting the market, there’s more to consider than how far left the next wave of council leaders sway.
