Land Reform is often used as a sound bite to avoid genuine action. Here are, put simply, 18 policies I will be fighting for; (1) End the dichotomy between new build & renovations by fixing the VAT regime.

(2) Land Value Tax.

(3) Introduce a system of land planning that requires land owners to use the land productively.

(4) Use Compulsory Sale Orders & Compulsory Purchase Orders to free up land.
