About US
OUR MISSION & VALUES
The mission of the Local Government and Housing member policy network is to help members share their views on how to create a more fair and just society through Fabianism.
We hold the belief that radical long-term goals are best advanced through empirical, practical, gradual reform.
It is through applying these beliefs to the biggest challenges facing local government, housing and land use regulation that we feel we can reduce inequality for all.
Local Government
Local government is responsible for a number of vital services for both business and people across a range of tiers of authority. These include, but are not limited to; social care, schools, housing and planning, and waste collection.
Housing
We advocate for policies that result in inclusive, abundant, affordable housing along with sustainable communities across the United Kingdom. We are pro-housing and are truly passionate about the buildings in which we live.
Land Use
The vast majority of municipalities in the United Kingdom regulate land use and development in their area. We seek to understand and review empirical literature on the economic and climate change effects of land use regulations.
