  • The levelling up minister has told Sky News the government will build new homes on brownfield sites before using green belt land.
    Jim McMahon said some land classified as green belt was grey belt, and could be used to meet Labour's pledge to build 1.5 million new homes.

    Does the interviewer think the green belt is just land that is green

      That’s not the issue. Green belt includes both…. She’s asking what his definition is… basically call them ‘grey site’ under the term green belt it gives them the ability too development on rural land… because they can

    With the current immigration level they will never fix the housing issue. There's already enough homes for the English, Scottish and welsh but the government decided to artificially increase the population over the past 25 years causing all the infrastructure issues we have.

    Brown field sites don't get built on because there's too much cost and red tape relative to the actual number of housing units that can be built on them.
    Party wall issues, underground utilities that need moving, site ground contamination, site access, tree preservation issues, conservation issues, consultant costs for things like bats, Community infrastructure levies (significant cost), councils gouging for council tax before they're even sold... Even getting a simple additional address my council wants £100.
    Then there's Homes England that has all sorts of additional stipulations that would have cost me an extra 100k to build 4 houses. They need to be forced to have a greater risk appetite given the economy benefits from all the taxes that occur during construction.
    Councils are seriously detrimental to the cost of housing. Here's another nonsense example, a council didn't want to give me planning because it would have led to less car parking spaces, yet it was easily within walking distance of town (Plymouth) and public transport. They literally care more about parking spaces than places to live, there's loads of potential to build at the back of these large homes that back onto the service alleys in cities like Plymouth etc, small tiny homes.

    where are the skilled men and women ? to build these homes coming from, I am a bricklayer and in the uk, there are only 70000 bricklayers there is a shortage of carpenters, roof tilers, plumbers, electricians,, so the idea of building 300 thousand houses , for the next five years is a load of hot air,, six " hundred thousand are needed now just to house the six hundred thousand refugees who have come here in the last two years, and more are still coming"

    The last government did, so why not this one. And for these idiots there's Green belt green land, both go to planning before they move the goal post. Farms for generations have been green field but now built on, green belt buffer between towns, and between town and countryside. Most places today go from town to town with no green
