SIR - So the Oxford Greens support social housing (Oxford Mail, March 29). Presumably that is why they voted against plans for 45 social homes on fly-tipped land in north Oxford called the Trap Grounds.

Maybe keeping quiet about the proposals to provide several hundred new affordable homes south of Grenoble Road is also evidence of their commitment to deal with the chronic needs of the 1,000 households in temporary accommodation in the city.

Right-to-buy is no longer an issue. Today we need sensible and realistic policies to provide affordable housing in Oxford, not dogma.
