How to fix London

With local election gains in Wandsworth and Westminster, the Conservatives are winning in London again. But what does a Tory vision for the nation's capital look like? The city is responsible for around a quarter of the UK's GDP, but it struggles with an acute housing crisis, an overstretched transport network, and a financial services sector navigating uncertainty. Join the panel to discuss how we can cement London's status as a global city.

Building on Solid Ground: Land use, planning reform, and the future of housing delivery

England's housing crisis is one of confidence, not just numbers. Permissions are granted but homes are not delivered quickly, many brownfield sites sit idle, and squeezed housebuilders pull back from unviable schemes. This event brings together planning, development and policy voices to ask what it takes to unlock land, deliver homes at scale, and build lasting policy stability.
