What should we do about the housing crisis?

I have been intending for some time to write something about the housing crisis.  After all, I worked for 17 years in the Council housing sector, then as a housing consultant, and later served as a member of a major city’s Housing Committee – so I ought to know something about it. However, it is now over 20 years since I ceased to be involved, so I find the current situation both unfamiliar and disturbing.  It is difficult to know where to start.
