Apparently the councils were all using ONS figures to guess there housing needs and loads are pissed because the estimates were wrong.

30 years ago a decent flat was the price of a house in Sluff.

There are lots of empty homes in London.

luckily our population is growing massively so ageing population is not real.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ing-59-6m.html
England and Wales have seen a 6.3 per cent rise since 2011 to 59.6million - slower than the 7.8 recorded in the previous decade.
The East of England was the region that swelled the most, up 8.3 per cent from 5.8million to 6.3million.
The population of London grew by 7.7 per cent in a decade – up from 8.2million to 8.8million. But in some borough the rate was far higher, with Tower Hamlets seeing a 22 per cent spike.
The expansion in Wales was also notably lower, with Ceredigion seeing numbers drop by 5.8 per cent over the period.
Meanwhile, the proportion of the population in older age groups continues to rise. Nearly a fifth - 18.6 per cent - were over 65, up from 16.4 per cent at the previous census.
Although the census does not offer any reasons for the rising numbers, other figures have shown immigration has been largely responsible for population growth since the 1990s.
However, the net inflow slowed around the time of the Brexit referendum in 2016 and was seemingly curbed further by the pandemic.
