The Government should ramp up housebuilding through an overhaul of planning laws, a leading Liz Truss ally has said in a pre-Budget warning shot.

Brandon Lewis insisted that building new homes would provide economic “rocket boosters” as he backed a new report into the issue.following a string of Conservative rebellions

Mr Lewis, who was justice secretary under Ms Truss before Mr Sunak sacked him from the Cabinet, said: “To fulfil our country’s great potential, we must give young people cause to believe that, like their parents, securing a good job will enable them to buy a home of their own, and to settle down and have children.

“At the same time, though, solving the crisis holds out the dual prospect of placing rocket boosters under our economy and selling a new generation on the ‘British dream’ of home ownership.”
