Today's story: Across the English-speaking world, the cost of housing (to buy or to rent) has far outpaced increases in incomes. That has caused governments to take a critical look at policies that have limited homebuilding, especially apartments. From London's green belt to cities in America, Canada, and Australia, people are increasingly saying ""yes"" to more building.

Learn this English expression: A person who is ""out of touch"" doesn't keep up with latest trends in culture, technology, or a particular group. It can also imply that someone is disconnected from the experiences of others.
