NEEDED NOW:
- We’ve solved housing crisis’s in the past
- We know how to do it

The petition for an industrial-scale state house building programme is here
It is the first stage in a campaign to get the government to meet the housing crisis head on.
The petition can be signed by individuals and organisations.
