Show Notes
Disposable vapes, XL bullies, and nitrous oxide – this government loves banning things. Has that always been the case? Do we secretly love living in a nanny state? And the housing crisis keeps getting worse, will a Labour government be able to fix the problem? We’ve got two of the UK’s leading housing journalists with us, including award-winning journalist and author of Show Me The Bodies: How We Let Grenfell Happen, Peter Apps.
• “We shouldn’t have a nerd PM, he doesn’t understand the appeal of the fun stuff.” – Marie Le Conte
• “I’m not sure banning things always works. I think it can make things more attractive again.” – Hannah Fearn.
• “There’s been a failure to imagine a world of flat ownership without leasehold.” – Peter Apps
• “I’ve been renting in London since 2009… I’ve got enough stories to finish the podcast.” – Marie Le Conte
• “We’re short of everything in housing.” – Hannah Fearn
