The housing pressure group Shelter has welcomed the housing plans launched by Ming Campbell earlier this week. The plans would provide a million new affordable homes by 2010.
“We are delighted that the Liberal Democrats have now committed to build the extra social rented homes these families desperately need.
“Ming Campbell has thrown down the gauntlet to Gordon Brown and David Cameron to commit to our campaign to build more social homes and ensure that decisive action is taken to help those suffering at the sharp end of Britain’s housing crisis.”
