The number of homes built in London with funding from the
Affordable Homes Programme is to drop by two thirds, mayor Sadiq Khan has
announced. About 35,000 homes are planned by 2026, using £4bn of government
funding - an average of £114,000 per house. The cost per house of the first
programme, under which 116,000 homes were to be constructed, was £41,551. The
Greater London Authority (GLA) Conservative group has accused the mayor of
"failing Londoners". A spokesman for the mayor's office said Brexit
and the cladding crisis had contributed to an increase in costs. Read more on
