Does Labour back RTB for Housing Associations?
The government has announced a policy to extend the Right to Buy to 1.3 million households who are tenants are Housing Associations. We believe this will fundamentally damage the capacity of HAs to build the new homes we need, reduce the number of truly affordable homes and create a new Buy-to-Let boom, exacerbating the exploitation of Britain's 11 million private sector renters.
So far the Labour Party has been cagey on whether they support or oppose this policy. Please use this form to ask the Shadow Secretary of State, Emma Reynolds what a Labour government would do.
