On @Channel4News this evening discussing my new book, The Common Good Economy, with @JackieLongc4. Links to watch online in replies.
The crises we face—from the climate, water, and biodiversity crises to health and digital inequalities—are not isolated market failures. They are the product of an economic system organised around the wrong assumptions. The Common Good Economy sets out the framework for a fundamental shift: from reactive corrections to proactive, shared objectives, where how we govern our economy matters as much as the goals we set.
The Tories waged an ideological war on the idea of social housing, leaving many families stranded without support.
This Labour government is ending that so everyone, no matter their background or circumstance, can have a secure place of their own.

NEW: Landlords and courts will get new powers to evict domestic abuse perpetrators from social homes, without the victim having to leave first.
Under legislation introduced by this government, perpetrators will no longer be able to use social housing as a weapon of control.
That's alongside building more homes and reforming the Right to Buy scheme, all part of our reforms to deliver stability for families in social housing.
