That is exactly what the new regime elected in #wandsworth two years ago has been doing - taking a pledge to build a thousand houses made by their #conservative predecessors and altering it make it social housing only - in addition purchasing properties from distressed 'Buy to Let' owners. All this is being funded by borrowing nearly £ 500 million over fifty years from the Public Works Loans Board against present and future rents. It makes getting #labour in feel worthwhile!
