UK specific issue is the cultural wanking over victorian houses that needs to stop
This is very much London specific imo

If we solved the supply/ demand mismatch and moved the cultural obsession away from old housing stock... would we still keep the old housing stock? It is perhaps adequate rather than shit from a basic functionality perspective.

Fundamentally lack of design vision is a universal issue.
That is also very UK specific. I don't know any other country with so many dead ends, barriers and fences is residential areas. The absolute incompetence to build liveable spaces. This is very typical, middle of a residental area but no access between any of the buildings
here some former social housing from the 70s in Germany, everything is walkable and accessible from any point.
but a bunch of prison barracks win prizes here.

UK specific issue is the cultural wanking over victorian houses that needs to stop. They are shit.
Also as @hoefla said there is not enough housing stock so people are stuck with these.
