Recent benefit changes plus the transfer of council property into private hands, is undoubtedly the reason for the current housing shortage.

Re: An unsurprising statistic

Don't forget the lack of new social housing housing being built.

The savage funding cuts imposed on councils by the government have meant that councils have been forced to cut their budgets for any discretional temporary rehousing which isn't mandated by law.

It's a sorry state of affairs.
