The findings of a recent survey by the National Housing Federation suggest that escalating house prices continue to pose a huge threat to the improvement of public services, government's number one priority for the next four years. Suggests what has traditionally been a London problem is now a national crisis. The survey reveals that, while over 70% of households earn less than £30,000pa, in more than half the English counties outside London households need an annual income of £30,000 to buy a home. Thus, essential services are at risk across many areas of the country. Looks at government's rescue package for key workers, concluding it is far from adequate.
