Boris Johnson is talking about new housing plans that will allow people to use their facilities to climb the property ladder. The prime minister is expected to reveal politics in a speech in Blackpool on Thursday afternoon, in a bid to save his political career after 41 percent of lawmakers said they did not trust his leadership. However, the government’s purchase right has been described as a “dangerous ploy” by the housing charity Shelter, with the group’s chief executive urging the prime minister to “stop wasting time” on failed policies. Shelter CEO Polly Neate said the government’s promise to replace social housing for sale through Right to Buy “has failed”. “The government must stop wasting time on the failed policies of the past and start building more of the secure social housing that this country really needs.”

Zero economic benefit from Brexit crowns on glasses, the government admits
The government expects zero economic benefit from the return of the crown symbols to the pint glasses, the ministers admitted. With food and energy prices soaring, the government used the jubilee banking holiday to re-announce that the crown marks could return to pub glassware. Asked about the benefits, however, Business Minister Paul Scully said the government “did not anticipate any impact on GDP” from the jubilee measure. Until 2006, a crown symbol appeared on beer glasses to indicate the accuracy of a pint. However, the new EU rules from that date meant that the crown symbol was no longer necessary, with a European “CE” mark.

Government’s housing plan “a dangerous trick” says Shelter boss
The housing charity Shelter also weighed in on the government’s new property policy. Polly Neate, Shelter’s chief executive, said: “The prime minister’s housing plans are confusing, unworkable and a dangerous ploy. The emergence of reckless plans for the expansion of the Purchase Right will put even greater risk our rapidly shrinking supply of social housing. “For decades, the promise to replace any social housing sold through the Right of Purchase has failed. If these plans go ahead, we will be stuck in the same catastrophic cycle of selling out and tearing down thousands more social homes than are being built each year. “The math does not add up: why try to sell out what little real affordable home is left – at great cost – when homelessness is on the rise and more than a million households are stuck on the waiting list. “The government must stop wasting time on the failed policies of the past and start building more of the secure social housing that this country really needs.” Thomas Kingsley June 9, 2022 11:00 AM 1654767764
