Sajid Javid: I’m in this race because I want to level the playing field, to lower the ladder to everyone.

Andrew Carter: More flexibility in council finances is needed if the target for new homes is to be met

Without a boost to infrastructure and local services, it will not be possible to increase the housing supply.

Rachel Wolf: On policy, it’s not the Independent Group that’s driven to the margins. It’s the Conservative Right.
