He's right about the need for social housing but doesn't even mention other measures to restrict property price inflation. For example, Land Value Tax - so property developers wouldn't be able to landbank for free - swingeing taxes on second homes, removing foreign investors from the market by restricting ownership to citizens ( works a treat in Thailand).
And so the cause is NOT all down to women getting into the workforce.
