Not only are house prices coming down, but so are commodity prices. You know, food, clothes, fuel, fripperies like that. It's the end of the world. Isn't it?
No, of course not, you hysterical, pampered fools in politics and the media. It just means that people other than you and yours might be able to afford to live anywhere decent, and to live there decently, even well. And that is why you are so up in arms.
We are beginning to realise that there are two Britains: the Britain that recoils in horror at any suggestion of sensible house or commodity prices, and the Britain that realises it might finally be about to enjoy the style of life that it deserves, and deserves a hell of a lot more than the recoilers do.
The latter pays for the former. So the former should show some respect.

Prices aren't actually going down, they're just rising less quickly. We still have inflation.
ReplyDeleteMaking the hysteria all the less forgivable.
