meanwhile we have 90,000 + children homeless living in shelters, B&B's and hostels. It is reported that as many as 9,000 war veterans are among Britains homeless which I belive as a total is about 10% of Britains total homeless figure. But heyt fcuk it, lets have 10,000 people already in a camp in shelter and safe from harm, (that are from a country that isnt as f***ed up as eveyone seems to think, try Sierra Leone, now thats f***ed.) jump the cue and have the red carpet rolled out for them. Why ? Why are our own children, veterans who fought for the country, and British people being treated as second class citizens, being largely ignored. Sickens me to my stomach. A very valid question in its own right, but irrelevant to the migration problem. The Conservatives have solved Child Poverty by redefining it (Labour were no better). Fact is even if we took back all that foreign aid and never allowed a single refugee or immigrant into the UK, the problems of suffering facing children, adults and veteran's would just continue same as it always has. Successive governments have had 25 plus years to solve the increasing problems of homelessness and child poverty and its only gotten worse. But hey, at least we had tax cuts..... It is a disgrace in a wealthy country like ours and we are all to blame in one sense.
Someone owns those homes as they are perfectly entitled to do. That is capitalism. Would you advocate taking those houses away from their owners ?
So where do you suggest this new 20.000 will be housed. Are you saying houses don't increase in value if people live in them? The owners would also get rent. People can not afford private rents,and a lot of people don't like renting because of hassles that can occour.
That’s an easy one to solve - just get more foreign workers over to build them.

How does Corbyn 'address this'? Rent caps linked to average wage in the area is one of the ideas mooted.

How does Corbyn 'address this'? Rent caps linked to average wage in the area is one of the ideas mooted. Has Corbyn provided costings on this 'Policy'? For example, should areas become uneconomic for landlords to provide accommodation because of 'rent caps' has he said how his government will maintain rent at the government's decreed price but without private sector investment? And, purely out of interest, how much will his scheme cost the taxpayer?

I have been reading Nickgusset and legaleagle posts on here , by the the looks of it ,they are young left wingers have not experienced the hardship of life . Typical of youngsters being bought up this day of age.Brain washed by the goverments of there time . Sorry Nick , Legal listen to the Hungarian prime minster wish ours was the same . Lol - I dont think that is the case but i'm sure they will both be flattered. I think they are both pretty decent guys, I just dont ever seem to agree with either them, maybe sometimes with Nick when its about music.

meanwhile we have 90,000 + children homeless living in shelters, B&B's and hostels. It is reported that as many as 9,000 war veterans are among Britains homeless which I belive as a total is about 10% of Britains total homeless figure. But heyt fcuk it, lets have 10,000 people already in a camp in shelter and safe from harm, (that are from a country that isnt as f***ed up as eveyone seems to think, try Sierra Leone, now thats f***ed.) jump the cue and have the red carpet rolled out for them. Why ? Why are our own children, veterans who fought for the country, and British people being treated as second class citizens, being largely ignored. Sickens me to my stomach. A very valid question in its own right, but irrelevant to the migration problem. The Conservatives have solved Child Poverty by redefining it (Labour were no better). Fact is even if we took back all that foreign aid and never allowed a single refugee or immigrant into the UK, the problems of suffering facing children, adults and veteran's would just continue same as it always has. Successive governments have had 25 plus years to solve the increasing problems of homelessness and child poverty and its only gotten worse. But hey, at least we had tax cuts..... It is a disgrace in a wealthy country like ours and we are all to blame in one sense.
Someone owns those homes as they are perfectly entitled to do. That is capitalism. Would you advocate taking those houses away from their owners ?
So where do you suggest this new 20.000 will be housed. Are you saying houses don't increase in value if people live in them? The owners would also get rent. People can not afford private rents,and a lot of people don't like renting because of hassles that can occour.
Nick - Speaking as a property developer and landlord I would be keen to know what you describe as a 'dodgy landlord'? If the standard of living was way below what is expected of the rent paid, that would make someone ''dodgy''. Firstly - I was asking Nick what he meant. Secondly - The standard of properties on the market would in no way help sort the housing shortage (which Nick was alluding to) Thirdly - I have no idea what your question meant? Tom You read plenty in the media about bad landlords who do not provide a service commensurate with the rent. Of course I'm not saying the vast majority of landlords are dodgy. As for the empty properties, why keep a property empty? Hardly helping the national cause is it? Also, as an aside, many think that those on housing benefit get the money first. They don't it goes directly to the landlord.
