He pledges to increase funding for social housing by 20 percent, increase funding for homelessness prevention by 15 percent, partner with the private sector for housing projects and simplify planning regulations to speed up construction.
Sir Keir also wants to build one million affordable homes over the next 10 years. He will nationalise land for 150,000 new council homes annually and retrofit a million homes for energy efficiency. Another policy states Sir Keir will introduce a tax on second homes and empty properties, as well as abolish Section 21 evictions and improve renter security.
