In this episode, Matthew Masters is joined again by Joe Fyans, Head of Research at Localis, to explore two of their latest publications: "New Stable", which examines how reforming the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) could unlock billions for affordable housing, and "Generating Hope", which looks at the Local Power Plan within GB Energy and the role of local authorities in driving clean energy transformation.
Together, they unpack how local government can be empowered to lead on two of the UK’s most pressing challenges, housing and energy, through strategic investment, public-private partnerships, and systemic reform.
