The figure the Government uses is 5,000. That number of homes built on an annual basis would resolve the housing crisis. Five thousand homes could be built every year and yet we are spending this money on debt relating to private institutions that we had no legal obligation to bail out, certainly before the bank guarantee. We are talking about a housing crisis that could be sorted and not be a problem if we did not have this debt hanging over us.
