Isle Of Wight MP Hosts Controversial Housing Debate

The Island's MP is hosting a parliamentary debate on planning reform this morning (Thursday).

It comes as the Isle of Wight could be forced to build 1,000 homes a year under the Tory Government's new White Paper, as first reported by Isle of Wight Radio.

Bob Seely says he is leading the rebellion against the Government’s controversial housing reforms.

He previously told Isle of Wight Radio he intends to “fight” the proposals, as exclusively reported by Isle of Wight Radio.

Isle of Wight Radio understands around 60 MPs will attend the debate, which takes place at around 11.30pm.

The former Prime Minister Theressa May is also expected to challenge the planned reforms and speak in the debate.
