A quick, informal chat to Adam Parsons on BBC News and then an hour long phone in on You & Yours on Radio 4 with housing minister Mark Prisk and Housing Federation’s John Stewart. Expertly run by Winifred Robinson the topic was ‘the housing market’ with bumper profits reported by Persimmon yesterday and Bovis today, government numbers on Right to Buy published we explore the merits of NewBuy and FirstBuy.
John Stewart complained afterwards that he wasn’t given as much airtime as me but as I pointed out, this was a radio studio not the Oxford Union! The cut & thrust of broadcast media.
