Rachel Gilmour

Liberal Democrat — Tiverton and Minehead

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 June 2025

Debate

Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government

Contribution

My observation is that there is simply no such thing as affordable housing in my constituency. If someone is earning £12 an hour and £20,000 a year, a house that costs £30,000 is not affordable. Does my hon. Friend agree that the only sort of housing that people can afford in my constituency is social housing?
