Episode Details

Bristol’s council leader Tony Dyer is sounding the alarm on a multi-faceted crisis: 20,000 households wait for permanent homes, 2,000 are stuck in temporary accommodation, and the city’s van-dweller housing target is falling short. Dyer argues for urgent government funding to rebuild council housing and address affordability, while also navigating backlash against the liveable neighbourhoods scheme and a staggering 195% surge in SEND support demand—with waits stretching to 47 weeks. He’s calling on the new prime minister to make fixing these systemic failures a top priority.
