This is one of the main reasons the state should be building homes - to take the slack when the market (dominated by volume builders in many places) decides to build out slower
Barratt set to build fewer homes as mortgage costs hit demand.
The Darwin Green developer cited ‘demand sensitivity to current mortgage pricing and availability”.

1. Household formation rates are constrained by supply. Households can’t form without houses to form into.
2. Agree that absorption rates are a problem but supply should help diversify market and reduce power of a few developers
On 1. we should find out if planning is the binding constraint on market supply - as opposed to household formation rates, the wealth distribution and absorption rates.
Genuinely looking forward to seeing the results

It is a real honour to have been appointed Minister of State at @luhc
Tackling the housing crisis and boosting economic growth is integral to national renewal.
Time to get to work.

Another absolute peach of an article from THE Simon Jenkins, vanquisher of the evil renewable energy providers.
Devoid of fact and logic, it will no doubt appeal to some.
Already looking forward to the #Planoraks annual awards.
Too right @simonjenkins4
There will be a revolt. People will fight for their countryside.

Reasonable matters to be concerned about. Interesting that these are predominantly national issues, or at least certainly not local.
My perception is that concerns around not benefiting from Cambridge growth are more about things like, water, pressure on NHS services, school places, impact on environment - rather than wanting new leisure facilities or more shops etc.

After years of #carsharing, I am considering buying an #OwnCar. But before I decide, I have a few questions to confirm that this is the right solution for me. Please help me out in this thread 🧵:

Onana, Palhinha?
Great players. But is this the type of player we need right now? We had the best XaG record in the league
until the last few games.
Rice does this, and much more. I think what we need is a player closer to Partey's abilities. Big miss.

FIFPRO is shocked and sickened by reports that professional footballer Amir Nasr-Azadani faces execution in Iran after campaigning for women’s rights and basic freedom in his country.
We stand in solidarity with Amir and call for the immediate removal of his punishment.
Mudryk with a goal and 2 assists against Leipzig tonight @clivepafc! Looks electric with the ball at feet and most dangerous running at pace. BUT he doesn’t quite look to have the defensive urgency Arteta wants. That said, can always be learnt. Exciting player!

the 5 mile version looks a lot more dotty of course, and if I have time I might look at it by travel time to stations as well - which involves pressing a few more buttons on my computer

Bans now limit Western access to Putin's propaganda.
Most of us have no interest in propaganda. But there is reason to pause.
Not only are bans out of sync with the science of misinformation. They may also be detrimental to our fight for democracy.
An evidence-based 🧵 (1/16)

.@ZelenskyyUa's tv address to the Russian (!) people might be the most moving speech that I've ever seen in my entire life. The whole world needs to see, understand and share this crucial Ukrainian message.

@clivepafc @YankeeGunner found this pod really interesting, and it doesn’t relate well to Edu (not a scout, not a data analyst, no European executive experience). We basically have an intern as head of recruitment 🤦♂️
