After blogging on monday about how the General Election (GE) was influencing the housing market, there is yet more evidence that UK politics’ biggest popularity contest is affecting decisions within the property arena. This time it’s about new builds, specifically, plans to build 1,500 homes on the edge of Wantage, Oxfordshire. Local MP Ed Vaizey believes the proposals to build should be held back until after the GE.

Speaking to the press, Vaizey said: “The Liberal Democrat council have made the mistake of proposing to dump 1,500 houses on Wantage without any consideration about either the number of houses or the best place to put them.” If the proposals come to fruition, they will increase the town’s population by 35% but the MP for Wantage believes it is possible to stop some of the development and plans to request a meeting with the Secretary of State the day after the GE.
