We’re making a stand against casino capitalism in the housing market. We want to be affordable in perpetuity.” My Paper of 4 Dec 2004 to ODPM has made following suggestions: Cohesive community that is in a state of well-being, harmony and stability. It is a place: § which has a common vision for the future – it knows where it wants to be, what it wants to look like, and it involves local people so they have a strong sense of belonging § where people have equal chances and equal access to different types of services and amenities including affordable social & private housing. § that knows it has different communities, from different backgrounds, and openly appreciates and values them § where strong and positive relationships are developed between people from different backgrounds in work, schools and local neighbourhoods. § Decent Housing: Decent Housing is seen as vital, critical & fundamental to healthy, educated, thriving and sustainable communities enjoying safety, quality of life, environmental, social & economic well-being. § I’d like to go a lot further in saying that flexible, extendable, timber frame, pre-glazed, prefabricated panelled, erectable onsite, fully secure and functional in approx 72 hours, modular #housing-#for-#life (going far beyond any UK Building Regulations, Health & Safety Standards, & Thermal Insulation Requirements with the economy of fuel and the quality of life currently unimaginable in the UK) is vital, critical & fundamental to healthy, educated, thriving and sustainable communities enjoying safety, quality of life, environmental, social & economic well-being. § Currently, I am involved as a Member of MK Primary Care PPI Forum with the MKPCT & MK Gen NHS Trust to jointly consider the future strategy for health in Milton Keynes. My view also is that the strategy locally and Nationally ought to include all partners in a holistic aim to deliver economic prosperity; safe communities; accessible high quality education (in my view with preventative public health & responsible citizenship approaches such as compulsory Science applied to Health, Nutrition, sports and Inter School Athletics); decent housing; better health to the poorest parts of the country. This Strategy is translated into National, Regional and local level.
