Labour MP Chris Williamson’s latest ‘Week in Westminster’ video takes aim at Theresa May’s vacuous speech earlier this week on homelessness and the hypocrisy of the Tory press – before moving onto positive territory as he outlines Labour’s concrete plans to provide homes the UK desperately needs:

I like the idea of charging council tax on empty housing. Also I think the amount of community charge charged on the different bands of properties should be much higher on the highest bands and lower on the lower bands reflecting ability to pay. Also make it impossible to avoid paying inheritance tax.
Not to mention all the other taxes the rich prefer to avoid paying.
Much more convenient to pay fortunes to scheming accountants and lawyers to ‘find’ the loopholes in the tax legislation that they left there when they helped Gov & HMRC to draft them.
We should close the revolving door between the gravy train and the magic roundabout.
