Drawing on rigorous research and policy analysis, it offers a compelling case for a radical break with the status quo - and a return to housing as a public good.

Rejecting simplistic narratives about supply & demand, Bricking It interrogates the incentives, institutions & ideologies that have shaped the UK's housing landscape - from planning & land values to welfare policy, local government finance & the role of volume housebuilders.

Tracing the historical arc from post-war housebuilding to the era of Right to Buy, deregulation & austerity, the book exposes how decades of policy failure have led to a chronic shortage of social housing, worsening conditions in the PRS & deepening regional inequalities.

Bricking It is a forensic analysis of Britain's housing crisis, examining the structural and political decisions that have produced today's system of unaffordable, insecure and inadequate housing.

Really excited to announce the forthcoming release of me new book 'Bricking it' with @brisunipress.bsky.social. The UKs housing crisis is reaching endemic proportions, but as I argue in my book, I believe we are still far from the peak of our troubles.
