More than one million families and individuals are on the waiting list for a social home.
Experts think 90,000 of these homes need to be built every year for a decade to house everyone.
But less than 5,000 were completed in the past year - and there are fears the problem will become even worse.
Housing associations are in a 'perfect storm' of financial uncertainty, unsuitable construction and huge bills for repairs.
Housebuilders say they have at least 13,000 affordable properties ready to start.
Housebuilders say they could be allowed to sell affordable homes on the open market.
They say this would allow them to build more homes and meet government's target for house building.
But Labour says public finances are tight after inheriting the worst economic circumstances since World War Two .
Shelter chief executive Polly Neate says government must provide more funding.
