Your nonsense is just a diversion to avoid the real issue.
Houses that were built before and between the wars are largely still standing. Hitler blew up a few and most houses built during your precious Labour party term under Wilson were often sub standard s*** that has been regularly demolished.
It's not hard to understand. Please try.
The population is growing because of immigration. No other reason. Therefore we need more houses year on year. It is not sustainable. Nor is it desirable. You seem incapable of understanding simple concepts.

Indeed, which is the crux of my point. I can get a mortgage and, despite the fortunate position I now find myself in, property ownership in the SE is inaccesible (perhaps a better semantic choice than "unaffordable" ). What does that mean for other income groups?

Anyway, enough finger pointing. My view is that blaming this situation on EU freedom of movement conveniently moves the focus away from years of government's economic policies which have entrenched multiple property ownership as the one guaranteed way to generate decent returns on wealth.

Apologies for earlier outbursts of sarcasm.

Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune)

True. Mortgage advisor here, almost all the first time buyers I see end up paying less on their first mortgage than they did on rent, whilst upgrading the quality of property.

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Same here. But he said born, not living, so I'm in.

Optimistic as ever

That's the Queen off for a start then
