Our Vision for Cardiff is a city where:

 the planning system works for citizens, rather than for developers

the “15 minute city” concept is adopted and used to frame the city’s growth

affordable homes and decent jobs are available for all

Politicians and managers are already reluctant to take responsibility for fixing issues and too ready to see them as somebody else’s problem. There is little transparency, leaving those who need solutions struggling to find out who might provide them.

When it comes to poverty in the capital city, things are moving in the wrong direction – over 25% of citizens in our city are living in poverty once housing costs are taken into account and over a third of children in Cardiff are growing up in poverty.

Cardiff needs more affordable housing but building on greenfield sites will not guarantee this. Only deliberate action, including more council homes, can do that. All residential developments, including those in the Centre or Bay, should include affordable units.

OPPONENTS of a proposed business park on the border of Cardiff and Newport which could create 5,000 jobs say it would destroy a biodiverse wetland adjacent to the Gwent Levels and go against decarbonisation plans.

Why does Cardiff council see citizens as ‘outside influences’ who should be kept in the dark?

Cardiff was an affordable city it no longer is

LEASEHOLDERS facing huge repair bills after they unwittingly bought apartments in buildings that have serious fire risks say it’s unfair that the company which developed their homes is still having planning applications approved.
