Boris Johnson has been forced to accept he may miss a
target date to build 55,000 affordable homes in the capital. He and his top
officials have previously stated the affordable homes would be built in the
capital by March 2015. But he has now suggested they may not be complete until
the end of that year. Labour’s Assembly housing spokesman Tom Copley asked Mr
Johnson: “Is the deadline for 55,000 affordable homes the end of March 2015, as
has been [put] on the record by you and your Deputy Mayor numerous times, or is
it December 2015?” The Mayor responded: “As far as I can remember it’s 2015.”
Asked when in the year, the Mayor said: “Well I don’t know. Whenever we’ve done
them.” Read more on the Evening Standard website.
