Buying or selling a home should be one of life's great moments – not a drawn-out nightmare of delays, hidden costs and failed deals. Today we're changing that. Our reforms will make the system faster, fairer, and more secure – saving families and first-time buyers time and money

Today marks nine years since the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower. The 72 residents who tragically lost their lives will never be forgotten and my thoughts are with the survivors, bereaved families and all those affected.

For too long, too many communities have felt ignored. We should all take pride in where we live, and that’s why investment must reach every part of the country.
