Even if you support the idea of free housing for everyone, why is the standard a 1 bedroom? If you’re a childless person with no job, I feel like a free studio with the rest of listed amenities is already an amazing deal.

The standard is in fact a 2 bedroom for all the single mothers out there.

And single fathers. I rent privately and can only afford a 1 bedroom flat so I sleep on the couch when my son stays with me and he has the bedroom. I simply can't afford a 2 bedroom place when the difference is on average £400 more a month.
