Stepping away now would mean losing homes London urgently needs, on land that has sat empty for decades. The costs cited are marginal. The cost of doing nothing is not. @london.gov.uk #AffordableHomes #PublicLand

London CLT @londonclt.bsky.social · 18/12/2025
This is public land. Land that already belongs to Londoners. Using it for permanently affordable housing is one of the most direct ways to address the housing crisis. #PublicValue #HousingCrisis @london.gov.uk
