Under the labour concept of right to buy was markedly different from what Thatcher introduced.

The crucial difference was that under Thatcher councils were not allowed to build new housing from the proceeds of sales.

This is the root cause of why we are where we are today.

40 years on and all governments failed to address this known issue.

As council receipts ticked ever higher central government rate support was withdrawn.

It's almost as if Thatcher planned it that way 😂👍
