That has got to be the stupidest logic dealt out by the left of thinking. How can a lack of housing be a problem but increased population not add to that problem? Duh! The left are just such nice people though Hrolf, can't you just see how much they just care about people that they'll never actually meet? They're just so empathetic.

Over half a million properties laying empty. On the subject of housing. Frequently they use prebuilt houses factory built and assembled on site on Gran Designs. Must be the way forward surely. Posh pre fabs. Edited by nickgusset (28 Dec 2017 10.55pm)

I don't want to live in a country with an insane population density and I'm not wasting my time engaging with irrational people on ths subject.

The lack of new social accommodation/council housing added to the major housing deregulation acts back in the 80's and exposing it to the full force of free market economics has been the biggest let-down for the general population imo and absolutely nothing to do with over-population but successive governments lack of will and foresight and unhealthy obsessions. The younger can work as hard as they like but how are the majority going to be able to get a mortgage in their mid-twenties when flats are way out of reach financially and for independence there are no council places either? Thatcher started the rot. Edited by Kermit8 (28 Dec 2017 6.09pm) I was wondering why she didn't appear in your first line but I guess that was just a clever way of saying she sold off the houses that in reality no cnut wanted to live in. Now they do, in their millions, just in London, so how the addition of new stock to the public market has caused this problem, you'll have to explain. Not sure why you're talking about workers and social housing in the same sentence either, or even affordable, which has always been a myth since the term's inception, not least when we're talking about national debt. Maybe plot GDP/ debt/ population rather for a more balanced evaluation. Someone get the graphs.

Mass immigration is a disaster waiting to happen. Might be better to answer the question. Immigrants are more likely to have jobs and less likely to use any and all public services. Our problem is dreadful productivity fuelled by poor investment decisions. Immigration has disguised the scale of the problem but can’t reasonably be claimed to have caused it.

UK has one of the worst levels of corporate investment in developed world and in fact its lower than the rate of capital depreciation meaning we're now having to try and do more with less in the private sector. Hence very poor productivity. Add to this austerity and lack of public investment and bingo. Diminishing living standards and crumbling public services and infrastructure. Businesses want immigration as it's cheap labour but don't want to pay for the means to support it and governments have been too incompetent.

On some subsets a small return was made, not commensurate with returns from other investments over the period. But there were also elements carved out as bad banks where we lost our shirts. As Cambridge says above. Check out the NAO report from July Edited by Mapletree (29 Dec 2017 12.36am)

The rest of your post lacks clarity but not, perhaps, alcohol.
