The evidence in the OP is much broader than that:

In terms of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries, the UK has roughly the average number of homes per capita: 468 per 1,000 people in 2019. We have a comparable amount of housing to the Netherlands, Hungary or Canada, and our housing stock far exceeds many more affordable places such as Poland, Slovenia and the Czech Republic. It is impossible to make a case for unique levels of housing scarcity in Britain, in comparative international or historical terms.

And even if there is enough houses they are in places where there is no demand due to lack of work... Remote work can serve some, but you also need robust enough manufacturing sector. And those are not remote jobs... In the end globalization might have made stuff cheaper to buy, but also led to housing issues.

Yeah, I thought those were really bad examples. The author seems to be desperate to provide ammunition to undermine their own article :D
