Closed Concreting over our countryside is a crazy form of regeneration - regenerate our businesses instead

Closed on

For years UK governments have encouraged artificially stimulated house building booms in order to create a bogus impression of economic regeneration.

The house price crash which led UK into deep recession shows the utter folly of this approach.

This housing boom policy is economic madness. It's destroying our countryside and ruining our country. Regenerate Britain's real wealth: our businesses, which sustain the jobs of Britain's c 28 million employees.
