A guest on today's GB News breakfast show, Katherine Forster, ripped into the Labour government as she said that the reality of their plans to build new homes across the nation was actually "very upsetting".

Host Stephen Dixon seemed like he struggled to wrap his head around the Prime Minster's plans. He explained that there had been reports of "less ambitious targets" when it comes to building new homes.

The guest replied: "Well that is the opposite of what the government have briefed. So when that is published it will be fascinating to see."

She explained that the last government, the Tories, had already built one million new homes. She added that the Labour party's plans of building a further 1.5 million homes is "very, very ambitious".

Katherine continued: "They're not going to be able to do that, without changing some of the rules. My understanding is that there will be mandatory targets or councils.

"The Tories tried that but there was huge opposition under Rishi Sunak. Ultimately those mandatory targets were dropped. So there's still a lot of uncertainty but this will be being published this lunchtime and people will be pouring over it to see the details."

Stephen chimed in again as he said: "What I don't understand is that yes it's hugely difficult because stuff needs to be built. People don't want it to be next to them, we all get that.

"But this seems to be a case of the government going 'well, actually you've got no say in it. You can't object to it or the planning process. You can't go to your council. You as the British people have no say in this whatsoever, this is just going to happen'."

The guest replied: "It's difficult to see how they could take it as far as that. They're clearly saying that locals are going to have less powers to object but people will surely still have the right to make their views known.

"But I do think it's potentially a headache for lots of newly elected Labour MPs in constituencys. If you have a house, you may be very worried about loads of other houses popping up but if you are the generation that realises they can't afford properties, till potentially in their 30s or even longer, you're going to take a very different view on this.

"One of the promises we saw when Labour were running for government was this promise to get Britain building. But of course, the reality of that is probably going to upset a lot of people."
