The Inside SW1 Podcast

Welcome back to this week’s Centre Left Politics Podcast hosted by Carl Quilliam and Malcolm Clarke. This week we are delighted to be joined by our special guest Chris Worrall, Housing columnist at Left Foot Forward and National Exec Member of Labour Housing Group and former Editor of the Red Brick Blog. During the podcast we go into the politics and detail of Levelling Up, including whether levelling up can deliver new homes, was Keir Starmer right to offer his support to Rishi Sunak to keep housing targets and we take a deep dive into other elements of levelling up including the tightening of ‘use it or lose it’ provisions in planning, street votes, green belt protections, the development of existing brownfield sites and how Labour’s housing plans are shaping up. Chris is a fantastic guest and gives loads of value and expertise for anyone interested in housing issues.
