When a block of flats in Singapore gets old, its owners can vote to sell the whole building to a developer, who rebuilds it with more homes on the same site. 🚨TODAY: A new article on how Singapore lets flat owners VOTE to build more homes. It's called 'en bloc' 🧵
Before and after aerial views of the same site in Singapore, from Google Earth. Left, labelled Before 2009: the site of an older apartment estate, shaded and outlined in green, among low-rise houses and trees. Right, labelled After 2025: seven tall, curving residential towers now stand on the same land. Headline: How Singapore lets flat owners vote to build more homes. Above it: Before and after an en bloc vote. Below, three figures: 618 flats before, 1,715 homes after, and +1,097 more homes.

At the 2029 General Election, you can vote for: 1. The current government (Labour) 2. Those who were in Boris’s government from 2019-2022 and now back socialist policies (Reform) 3. Or a new, fresh, Conservative government full of the next generation of serious thinkers.

This is right up there with the Nick Clegg “new nuclear power wouldn’t be available until 2022” classic as an example of how Lib Dem NIMBY-ism has terrible real-life consequences.

I am very worried about the government’s latest planning reforms published today, which will give a ‘default yes’ for developments near railway stations. (1/3)

#FACTCHECK ❌Tories had 10 years of their own to fix housing, they didn’t ✅Meanwhile LibDem councils lead nationally in housing
Rob Blackie 🔶@robblackie29 Nov 2025
One third of ALL council housing building started in London this year has been by Lib Dem Sutton council. A great achievement from the Lib Dem team - but also a reflection that Labour have failed on housing - contributing to our terrible levels of homelessness.

The next PM must be different. That means properly cracking down on rip-off water companies, rapidly building more homes, fixing our broken voting system, building burnt bridges with Europe and tackling intergenerational inequality Fail on any of that, and nothing will change.
