Maybe the longer term aim is to fill all those great big under-occupied houses with migrants...

If someone owns a large house and wants to remain in it on their own that's their right IMHO. If successive governments had wanted to do something meaningful to sort out the housing problem they've had plenty of time to do so but simply lacked the required will and/or foresight.
