Nearly 8 months since Labour promised funding for buildings under 11m.
Details due last September. Still missing. ⏳
Meanwhile leaseholders in “low-rise” blocks are getting life-changing bills for problems they didn’t cause.
History repeating itself.
Change? What change?

We can't staircase out of shared ownership, can't add partners as property owners, can't relocate for career opportunities.
Family planning remains on indefinite hold - six years of major life decisions delayed because we can't access our own equity.
