00:00Over two million houses have now been sold and the right to buy since it was introduced.
00:06Now look, in the first place, those houses went to people who had worked hard and saved up to own
00:12the home they lived and loved.
00:15But now they're increasingly owned by private landlords, property developers, investment firms,
00:23who treat our homes and their tenants as cash cows.
00:28One in six private renters is now renting a former council home, often at extortionate rates
00:36and often partly paid for by the government in the form of housing benefit.
00:41Another example of a system which is not only totally unfair, but utterly incoherent.
00:49Our Green MP, Sian Berry, she has been fighting hard to end this mess,
00:54calling for councils to be able to buy back homes lost through right to buy.
00:59So we need to end right to buy completely.
01:04Build more council homes and control rents so everyone can afford a decent roof over their heads.
01:12Build more Ceillas like this.
01:12Build more local households withheitaaaaaaand
