Petition Number 10 (ii) Modernise Statutory Building Standards

Today I got an email from kate-lewisham via MyBlogLog (so far it has about 8 votes). I suppose it is too early to say whether these on-line petitions will have any lasting impact? However, we cannot just let "conservative interests" (with a small or large C) e.g road pricing, set the agenda on something which could become important in the future.

Your Message from kate-lewisham----Hi i saw you have an interest in social housing, I have started a petition which might be of some interest to you. The petition is to have the statutory standard for housing modernised so that funding can be made available to build and improve family sized homes. It would be great if you could take a look and perhaps let other people know. http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/rehouse-kate/
