Yes, we need to build more homes. But first we need to decide what homes go where. And we need to do that fast! #planforhousing NOW!

@peakay81 @sevensixfive @Mr_Bricolage This is where tech bros get it all wrong. We need to make technology to work WITH professionals, not INSTEAD of them.

[Blocktype @BlocktypeApp]

Ground floor flats should always have their own front doors. #housingdesign

"The number could be as high as 529,000 if current net migration levels hold."

Should have used @BlocktypeApp 🤣

[Blocktype @BlocktypeApp]

Now that the Stratford Sphere is out of the picture, maybe we could build those 2,000 homes?

@BBCNews Can we get 2,000 homes on the site instead? https://t.co/Qx1N3D1vR2

@johnhaggart1 @ChrisGiles_ Can we get 2,000 homes on the site now instead? https://t.co/Qx1N3D1vR2

[euan mills 🤖 @euanmills]

How many times do we have to say that @BlocktypeApp is a housing PLANNING tool, not a DESIGN tool! 😂

“The most important fact in modern British domestic politics: in the 1990s, a first-time buyer couple on a low-to-middle income saving 5% of their wages would have enough for an average deposit after three years. Today it would take them 24 years.” https://t.co/Vy004BZDTq

[Blocktype @BlocktypeApp]

Recently @michaelgove told councils that "better use should be made of small pockets of brownfield land." @samuel_stafford suggests three policy levers for how to achieve this.
