[@stevenham1937]

They are. They’ve simplified the planning to do that and have converted 21000 to homes so far with about 10000 in the pipeline now which will ramp up more going forward. Trouble is they’re all apartments and we don’t need more of them or at least that’s what I see around me. I’m on the outskirts of West London and all they keep building is 1000’s of flats everywhere. London including the residential outskirts has about 3.7 million homes and nearly 2 million of them are already apartments with many more planned. To be honest though there’s only 28k offices empty here as well and by the time you remove the dilapidated or non residentially suitable in that figure it’s much less.

[@paulviscount3179]

they don't do anything for the money they already get, why should they get more money

[@gazsm1]

Councilors should have a set salary, equivalent to management in the private sector. Councils should not spend on frivolities or their own 'pet' projects that don't serve the community as a whole. Councils should only employ staff where absolutely necessary(to many 'jobs' have 3 people employed where 1 or 2 would suffice). Councils should be audited publicly every year with every penny earnt/spent accounted for(that would quickly show where money was wasted and where it could be better used). The biggest problem with Councils is that they spend money that isn't theirs!

[@col1664]

Councils were given the money from the sales of their hosuing stock but not allowed to use it to build more homes. Which is rather a good idea, as the newly built homes would be eligible for sale under right to buy after a few years, no? And don't forget, when the houses were sold the all costs to the council for maintenance went too (when I was a kid the council used to decorate council houses, cut the hedges, replace roofs, windows etc. etc). The Town and Country planning act 1947 is the reason land is expensive and not enough homes have been built. Plus allowing millions of extra people into an already crowded country is mad (crowded in the areas where people want to live that is). The south east is full.
