I made it my mission to build the biggest wave of social and council housing for a generation.
The landmark £39 billion investment and the creation of the National Housing Bank have laid the foundations for a generational boost.
Today’s stats show the highest number of social rent starts since 2010 - the social rent revolution is well and truly underway.

This building was once headquarters and studios of Granada TV. 38 years ago I was interviewed here by Tony Wilson - https://t.co/9jaFxvT66T . Remember the canteen?
It is now Mollies. When I am in Manchester I sleep here, meet here and eat here. The bar below is a thing of beauty and the first floor hang out space is next level. Service is swift. Vibe is right.
And the art on the walls is by Venus Arts: My favourite Art People: This is not an advert. The place is my secret. Tell no one.

Last night in Manchester I was one of a handful of lucky people at the dress rehearsal for SURGE: An ode to Sinéad O'Connor .
It will take your breath away (as if) taken by her. You will never be as close to Sinead O'Connor than this.
If you are a fan, if you are a woman, if you love dance, if you hate dance, if you are a bhudist, if you are non religious, if you are religious, but particularly if you are a human: Go see it.
