Houses are not free though , the tax payer is going be lumbered with a massive bill 1 , 000 , 000 houses given to illegals and the like will cost the tax payer over £12 billion per annum and that is a very conservative figure... illegal immigration will end up costing over £100 billion faster than most people think... In fact it is probably already costing half of that except they fiddle the figures and remove the costs for many by reclassifying them as seen already where they call them asylum seekers and refugees , as well as illegal becoming irregular!

[@andreaconroy3623]

We recently retired - we HAD to move from Sussex to Lincolnshire to be able to afford a reasonably sized house in cash. We could not afford either rent or a mortgage on our pensions. Lincolnshire is lovely - we now live rurally and peacefully. BUT - our youngest, a man of 32, who could not afford housing on his own in Sussex or the whole of the South East, had no choice but to move with us (he was doing a Teaching apprenticeship in Sussex in a special school). He now is faced with having to try and find work here in rural Lincolnshire. Swings and Roundabouts come to mind.

[@glennisfryd]

We did the same thing and moved from South Oxfordshire to Somerset. We moved because of the number of new houses surrounding us and the people who moved in were not mindful of speed limits and were antisocial. We sold a 3 bed for £625k and bought a 5 bed farmhouse for £650k. My son moved with us and the same as you he can't fid work.

[@fr1zla]

Your absolutely correct Benedict about lack of jobs on Wearside (A labour stronghold until next summer) as both the Labour party ,who have taken the area for granted and the Tories who decimated the Shipyards and Coal mines in the 80's but despite Nissan, sadly failing now, never really encouraged other industries to replace these old ones. Reform all the way now.

[@elainemackie1431]

There's loads of properties lying empty in the cities, shops that have went bust, offices not required because of WFH - why not get these back into housing stock first before building new

[@shivaunt71]

It's not going to happen. We don't have the people to build them, and the developers have no interest in flooding the market and driving prices down.

[@hydraV1-c7d]

but its not flooding the market because the supply and demand curve has shifted . If you have a never ending stream of incomers ...they need houses (demand) and since we pay for them , naturally they will keep coming and that will keep prices high.

[@sharonhyde7735]

Exactly so how that will enable more houses?

Yes , I agree , I watched a program about where to go if you choose to live , the answer was any country who have survived and recovered from oppression.
