In this Reboot Republic, Rory is joined by Tony to discuss the progress report into the governments housing plan, Housing for All.

Rory debunks some of the myths around the 'wins' and discusses why the tenant protections in it are far from adequate. They talk about the overreliance on Investor Funds and the risks that poses to the economy and the impact it has on social mobility. They also discuss the financial mistakes this plan continues to make and why the reframing of terms like 'cost-rental' and 'affordable housing' should not go unchallenged.
