Let joy be unconfined.
The explosion in house prices has meant that most younger middle or upper-working-class people stand no chance of living out the middle-aged peak of their powers in properties remotely resembling the ones in which they grew up.
"Bricks and mortar" do not, at least ordinarily, constitute an "investment". They constitute a place to live. If we are now being forced back to acknowledging that truth, then about time, too.

Haven't you already written this post before on at least three occasions? Why are you just repeating it if you don't have anything new tio say?
ReplyDeleteOnly if house prices have been projected to fall by ten per cent in six months at least three times since I started blogging.
ReplyDeleteIf only!
I'm very concerned. As a bpa supporter,I've been eagerly waiting for a list of candidate names for my region in the yorkshire and humber. All the other parties have published theirs and are busy campaigning. When will we get our list David so I can start getting out there and knock on doors for them.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, Y&H...
ReplyDeleteDo get in touch.
You mean you haven't got a complete list yet for Y+H? To go with your incomplete list for the SW, and for the East Midlands from previous conversations. Is there anywhere you *do* have a complete list for?
ReplyDeleteYes, but we've always said that we would only publish the thing as a whole.
ReplyDeleteWhen?
ReplyDeleteSoon enough.
ReplyDeleteNow, back on topic, please.
Ignore them. They are Labour Party employees with nothing else to do. The British blogosphere is full of them.
ReplyDeleteOh, I know.
