Austin Mitchell MP will give a talk entitled:-

The Housing Disaster

Quote from Austin “Every previous Labour government has been proud of its housing record. The only records established in the last ten years have been in the lowness of the build totals for both private and public housing. The result is a housing crisis which we’re only now beginning to grapple with, and a growing strategy of affordable housing for the increasing numbers who can’t afford to buy. That makes it time to change our priorities, build public housing for rent and bring councils back into the housing game.”

The main speaker will followed by a local councillor who will give a local perspective on the issue. This will be followed by a debate and open discussion chaired by Alan Mosley (leader of the Shropshire County Labour Party).

Refreshment will be available.
