Mr Louie French

Conservative — Old Bexley and Sidcup

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 September 2026

Debate

Social Housing Bill [Lords]

Contribution

My hon. Friend will be aware that the Mayor of London has been in power for over 10 years, and that London’s housing starts have fallen through the floor. Over 300,000 Londoners are estimated to be on housing waiting lists, the majority of them in Labour boroughs. Does he find the rhetoric today somewhat confusing, given that even though the Government have cut Sadiq Khan’s affordable housing target by 22%, he continues to miss it?
