    Maybe the answer is to adjust council rents to increase the disparity between one bed and 3 bed properties, then be more generous with rent allowances in the case of families in genuine need.

    They , sort of, do this anyway, if you are on benefits. If you have more bedrooms than you need you don't get full housing benefit.
  • The petition asks the government to build up rather than out when it comes to building the 3 million extra homes it requires.

    Great, lets go back to the 60's and build more miserable tower blocks...most councils are knocking these crime dens down!
