Liberal Democrat Party President Tim Farron has slammed Labours plans for housebuilding, pointing to their terrible record when in government.

By the time they left office the number of new homes being built had fallen to its lowest level since the 1920s and the number of families waiting for a social home nearly doubled from 1 million to 1.8 million.

Commenting, Tim Farron MP said:

Labour want us to pretend that the housing problems we face in Britain are nothing to do with them, but they totally failed to deal with the issue in office.

Under Labour, the number of affordable homes fell by 421,000. They have no right to lecture about how we solve a housing problem they did not nothing to address.

Labour didnt have the solutions in government and they dont have the solutions now. Building 200,000 houses a year is an unambitious target that does not even keep up with household demand.

The Liberal Democrats plan for 300,000 new homes a year would help clear the backlog and address Britains housing problems.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) Democrat Gary King hopes to follow his fathers footsteps into the governorship of New Mexico but hes struggled to raise money and make much headway against Republican Gov. Susana Martinez, the nations only Latina governor.

Martinez has outspent King more than 6-to-1 on television ads and a new poll showed Martinez maintaining a comfortable lead in whats traditionally a Democratic-leaning state. The Democratic challenger had only $123,000 in his campaign account this month as the race entered the final stretch.

TV isnt everything in a modern world, said King, a two-term attorney general and the son of the states longest serving governor, the late Bruce King, who won three terms from the 1970s to 1990s.

I campaign a lot in the style of Bruce King, which is to go out and meet voters face to face, King said at a recent political forum.

An Albuquerque Journal poll released Sunday showed 53 percent of likely voters backing Martinez to 38 percent for King, with 9 percent undecided.

Martinez made history four years ago by becoming the nations first female Hispanic governor and the first woman elected governor of New Mexico. Shes considered a rising star in a party thats searching for ways nationally to appeal to Hispanic voters.

Martinez has succeeded in doing that in New Mexico, where Hispanics account for 47 percent of the population. The latest Journal poll showed two-fifths of likely Hispanic voters supporting the governor. Thats strong for a Republican in a state in which Democrats traditionally win by margins of 2-to-1 or better in heavily Hispanic areas.

Martinez also had the backing of 28 percent of Democrats and 52 percent of independents, according to the poll conducted for the paper by Albuquerque-based Research and Polling.

Were less than two weeks away from the election and Gary King is still below 40 percent, despite the Democratic Partys 47 percent share of statewide voter registration, pollster Brian Sanderoff said.

His firm surveyed 614 voters over a three-day period last week, and the poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
