The government says it wants a million homes built in England by 2020, as the scale of the housing crisis is revealed in a 麻豆官网首页入口 Inside Out investigation.

The National Housing Federation estimated 974,000 homes were needed between 2011 and 2014. But figures from 326 councils showed only 457,490 were built.

Housing minister Brandon Lewis said the government aimed to see one million new homes over this Parliament, but Labour said the Tories had failed on housing.

In the last year, 36 tents have been handed out to homeless people living in Cumbria.

Many of them have been handed out by Allerdale Citizens Advice Bureau which says it has seen people living inside giant wheelie bins, in bus shelters and garden sheds.

Wayne Purdham is one of those given a tent, and shows where he pitches it for the night on a fire escape in Carlisle.
