“We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to let local councils have more power to give priority to british born people over housing.”

“We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to act now to save Leckhampton and Shurdington in Gloucestershire from the damaging and inappropriate housing development proposed in South West Regional Spatial Strategy. We believe the housing numbers being imposed upon Tewkesbury Borough Council and Cheltenham Borough Council will have an unacceptably damaging impact on Green Fields to the South of Cheltenham where an area of search has proposed the development of 1300 houses.”

“We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to make it mandatory for buy-to-let lenders to offer borrowers greater flexibilty and a ‘roll up of interest’ option during the current market conditions.”

The economy, unemployment and the housing market were on the agenda at today’s PMQs.

The Prime Minister welcomed the Bank of England base rate cut today and urged lenders to pass on the reduction to homeowners and businesses.

The PM has welcomed housing and construction leaders to Downing Street to discuss the Government’s plans to help the industry through the economic downturn and to get mortgage markets moving again.
