That's a pretty bad theory. Housing is essential. London pays better and has better job opportunities than the rest of the UK, so it's seen as a good place to build career. Plus, there's lots of going on. That doesn't mean that pay keeps up with the cost of housing. Rent aside, owning a house is far more expensive, adjusted for income, then the rest of the country. In London a property costs something like 12x the average London salary. In the rest of the country, it's more like 6x. Rent will follow similar logic

This does highlight the frontline problems with living in any big city, especially London, but you dont get to the meat of the issue. Why are costs rising in the UK and the US? Because since 2008, the wealth holding of both countries has dipped to historic lows. 14 years of the Tories and they have done nothing to address the problem and have actually added fuel to the fire. Now we pay more tax for less pubic services, because as a country we are having to service our debt first. We need radical change! And i am not talking about the fringe rightwing nutters of Reform, but actual politicians capable of coherent thought. Admittedly they are hard to find in this day and age! First we must re-nationalise our utilities and stop giving away the profits to private business. Next up and crucially, we must ensure the rich pay their fair share of tax. Because if weath inequality increases, the divide will continue to widen and soon enough nobody will be able to afford a home. The cost of food and rent is a real problem, but unless we address the cause there is never going to be improvement.

That's not actually a very good explanation though. The population of London isn't increasing by 20% every year House prices, rent, and mortgages are rising everywhere in the UK, because the wealth of the super rich has exploded so they're buying up property as investment. Since COVID the wealth of the top 1% has increased by more than £800 billion, mostly from the Bank of England printing money and government debt, which is driving up inflation even more. And it means the government has no money to build or buy back affordable social housing. Rent would be a lot lower if there was a wealth tax on the top 1%, to pay for more social housing, and rent controls for private landlords (like most other European countries).
@chrisf9377
@chrisf9377 8 ай бұрын
@@DaProHobbit The large number of people entering the UK every year causes far more demand for property than these super rich people buying up property. And if the rich are indeed buying property as an investment then in many cases someone will be renting it. The top 1% already pay about 30% of all income tax in the UK.

How would someone move out of the UK easily, since its no longer part of the EU and therefore doesn't enjoy freedom of movement with EU anymore? To move to another country you need at the least a work permit. Most employers dont want to sponsor someone for a work permit unless they have specialist skills like for eg a software engineer, or certain car factory workers etc. On top of that you have issues with language most ppl not speaking German in this case.

Not going to the uni of your choice is not a solution. People should be able to live, work and gain an education in the capital city if they so choose. You're essentially saying that London Uni's should be for the children of the wealthy and elite.

no, I wouldn't on principle. However, if landlords are taxed more by the government because some of them got wealthier over covid then perhaps I would have to to keep up with the buggered mortgage rates

And these are the effects of every Tom, Dick, and Harry buying properties to invest, which is compounded by the government's unwillingness to build more affordable housing. Both problems can be fixed with the right government, a government that is willing to legislate new policies to protect public living standards. The rich are getting richer and the poor poorer.

immigrants? are you joking?? you REALLY think you're paying for immigrants, and that they are the cause of this mess?? I can tell you what you are paying for that actually is the problem: - You are STILL paying for the rich bankers who the government bailed out using your money via handouts back in 2008. - You are paying higher taxes because the rich (including many elected officials, huge corporations, the royal family etc) want to exploit loopholes and not pay their fair share of taxes. - You are STILL paying for the greed of the shareholders of all the assets that milk snatcher margaret thatcher privatised. - You are paying for the billions that the UK government can somehow afford to send to fund and support the Israeli, Saudi and Ukrainian armies. -You are paying for the millions Boris Johnson spent in useless PPE contracts for his rich friends during the covid pandemic. - You are paying for Liz Truss's tax cuts for the rich. - You are paying for Thatchcer's right to buy council house scheme. This is only the tip of the iceberg. So no, it's not because you're paying for immigrants. The government always uses this trick of pointing the blame at some group or the other, but never at themselves - and you fell for it. Embarrassing.
