The Labour leader pledged to take difficult decisions to “bulldoze” opponents trying to block the building of homes.

Sir Keir Starmer told his party conference this week, a Labour government would build 1.5 million houses.

BBC political editor Chris Mason asked him if he was a Yimby (yes-in-my-back-yard) opposed to the better-known Nimby (not-in-my-backyard) description for those who don’t want development near their own homes.

I’ll get tough on MPs blocking housing, says Keir Starmer
