The complex and self-serving nexus behind the UK’s housing crisis is laid bare in this passionate book from Bob Colenutt. Investigating the network of landowners, house-builders, financial backers and politicians, he reveals how we have been forced to accept the cycle of low supply and high prices, and proposes solutions to the housing emergency.

The long-term causes and nexus of power behind the UK’s housing crisis are under scrutiny in this passionately argued and radical critique of current housing and planning policies and practices. Colenutt reveals how a network of landowners, house-builders, financial backers and politicians lock in a cycle of low supply and high prices, and proposes much-needed answers to one of the biggest social challenges of our age.

Bob Colenutt is an activist and commentator on housing and planning and a part-time Lecturer at Oxford Brookes University.
