Labour leader Keir Starmer is facing fierce backlash over his housing targets, with critics warning his plans are doomed to fail. Conservative councillor Peter Geary has issued a stark warning, citing a large-scale, delayed housing project in Milton Keynes as an example of what could happen nationwide under Labour’s leadership.
“If this is an example of how Keir Starmer will deliver 1.5 million homes across the country, he will fail,” Geary stated. “This project is years behind schedule, has delivered no homes, has caused immense disruption to local people, and is a catalogue of broken promises of roads, bridges, and infrastructure promised, but never being delivered.”
