Think I've fallen victim to a spoof account, it wasn't him, sorry Dan, (but youre still a ringpiece).

He called her SCUM! And it was him that capitalised it.

Par for the course

But how do you make a 4 bedroom home affordable for you? How much do prices need to drop? I work in the construction supply chain and my 2 youngest are in their 20s so I'd be happy to see a downward adjustment in property prices alongside a large home building program as the benefits would...

Aaaargghhhhh! I'm not disagreeing we need to build more, but that alone won't solve it. A 30% reduction in house prices, which wont happen, would still make them unaffordable for many young people.

Building more houses is great, I'm all for it. But the average wage in this country is 36k, so a couple both on average wage, based on 2.5 x their salary get a mortgage for 200k. There's not a lot out their for that. And what about people on less, or those on minimum wage? I've no problem with...

But if there's not enough affordable starter homes it won't solve the problem. If young couples in their 20s are in a position to start buying 3 bed semis as their first homes I a few years time I'd ve delighted but it's not happening, unfortunately.

I said I don't know how but I'm sure it can done. We can stop owners of listed buildings making certain alterations. We can allow rare builds in forests that the owners can't sell so I'm sure there's a way. And even if you reduce the price of a 3 bed semi to 250k you stillness a 25k deposit...

Stop investors buying. Ring fence certain homes away from them, how I don't know but I'm sure it a be done. And no one said a 3 bed 2 bathroom semi is a luxury but it's definitely not your typical first time buyer property.

Nothing. But if we want to get people on the property ladder then they're not the way to do it. Pretty much what Offenham says, build starter homes, I'd also put something in place to stop them ever being sold as buy to let's.

I agree about planning reform though I'm not sure what the nimby demographic is. But we need to get things moving. But it's more than just about planning. Lots of projects kicked in to touch recently due inflation and the eye watering rises in material prices. And when we do build its 300k plus...

A rebalancing of house prices would be great, but it's very unlikely to happen. Bringing up the younger generations earning power is probably the most realistic way to sort that out but that brings its own issues. Unless we legalise euthanising your parents in their 60s.

Who has suggested being against a rebalance? Young people need help, more now than theyve needed for a long time. But why not bring one demographic up without brining another one down?

'They started it' Fucks sake. Everyone deserves better, no ifs or buts, like I said, I agree with what he's saying, I think the younger generation have it hard, but I don't think fuck the elderly is the,way to solve it.

It is, though if you look at the detail it's not quite a 'quadruple lock'. There's the usual tory slight of hand in there, most of it is just returning to a tax threshold they'd previously taken from pensioners. We still have shit pensions compared to most of Europe, let's not get into an...

Talksport journalist, an oxymoron surely?

The problem isn't shortage of cash, its where its going. Needs sorting out pronto.

Dropped leaflets on displaced people instructing them to head to a certain destination then bombed them when they got there, dozens of children burned alive. The zionist PR machine gone into overdrive this morning so they no its not playing well to the rest of the world.

No right minded person would support them https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/amp/

It happens regularly, it's just that it's newsworthy at the moment due to a British man dying.
