Do you mean NIMBYS and lefty anti- capitalist socialist Councillors when you say local people, mourning still, the loss of Corbyn?Mikero wrote: ↑Thu Aug 06, 2020 10:34 pm The £11 million given to the Tory party in the last year by property developers is now being paid back in the form of planning deregulation. Boris will moan that it takes too long, but thats mainly due to developers trying to do things that local people and their elected representatives do not want.

All true especially this ''There are far too many people arriving daily in the UK and not enough housing. People born in Leyton can not afford to by a small flat in Leyton for circa 450k and have to move out. The councils are too obstructive in planning decisions and if you shave ever seen the state of some of those councillors at a planning meeting you will realise why the council is such a mess.''Oiram wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 8:18 amDo you mean NIMBYS and lefty anti- capitalist socialist Councillors when you say local people, mourning still, the loss of Corbyn?Mikero wrote: ↑Thu Aug 06, 2020 10:34 pm The £11 million given to the Tory party in the last year by property developers is now being paid back in the form of planning deregulation.

Look at the flats at the Orient ground. Nobody who grew up in Leyton would ever had imagined such a development and there were lots of objections to it , as time as gone on , they are part of it and some of the spectators On the balconies during a match often provide additional entertainment.

So you believe that it is down to immigration then and the numbers coming in?NuneatonO's wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:01 pm Unbelievable.
Actually, no I don't suppose that it is.
The usual people citing immigration for the lack of housing - what a surprise. Who do you blame for that - Jeremy Corbyn?
Lest we forget that In 2010, Theresa May promised to reduce net migration to below 100,000. What she actually managed to achieve as Home Secretary, was the biggest migration inflow in history, with the annual rate peaking at over 300,000 several times. Indeed, in November 2015, immigration reached an all time record high of 336,000 - meaning Theresa May was missing her arbitrary target by an astounding 236%!
However, also you are conveniently overlooking the primary cause and effect - the abymal track record of the Tory Party since 2010.
Most unaffordable homes ever
After coming to power in 2010 the Conservatives have overseen the lowest levels of housebuilding since the 1920s. This combination of weak supply, very high demand and collapsing wages has pushed house prices to their most unaffordable level ever.
If you are going to blame anyone, at least have the decency to blame yourselves - for voting this mob back into power last December. Things could have been oh so much better.
No, I havent said that, have I.
But you said that Theresa May was 236% over her target for immigration with an annual rate peaking over 300k several times.NuneatonO's wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:17 pmNo, I havent said that, have I.
If people are, for example, coming here to work from the EU, then where are they supposed to live - in a tree house?
As I've clearly outlined above, the cause of the housing shortage is obviously the abysmal record of the Tory Party since 2010, to build new homes. The worst record since the 1920's!
The effect of that is that there is not enough new housing for the population.
Quite a simple equation to understand really, isn't it?

I don't believe that any government could put up that number of new houses year in year out so obviously the number of people coming in is too high for the country to cope with.
How many of those homes are council owned and available to be made ready to be lived in?tuffers#1 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:34 pmhttps://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.thegua ... s-propertyOrnchurch wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:27 pmBut you said that Theresa May was 236% over her target for immigration with an annual rate peaking over 300k several times.NuneatonO's wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:17 pm

Number of empty homes in England rises to more than 216,000
£53.6bn of property in England is empty.
Im sure some of those numbers have fallen with Corona ,
But it shows how truly shambolic this govt is.
216, 000 empty homes in the uk & so much homelessness.

Good question. But still not enough properties to even cover a years worth of people coming in to the country to live here.
I don't have a beloved Tory party.

Immigrants, first-time buyers, students leaving for Uni, families separating, etc. ALL require homes. The fact clearly is that your beloved Tory Party didn't build enough of them, did it. 0/10. "Must try harder".
You appear to be pointing the finger of 10 years worth of Tory Government incompetence at me!
Perhaps these questions should be aimed at your beloved Tory Party?
I know they don't need a separate roof over their heads. I've seen it with my own eyes how many can be squeezed under one roof.NuneatonO's wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 1:04 pm Ornchurch seems to now be under the impression that immigrants don't share accommodation.
He seems to think that each individual immigrant requires a seperate roof over their head.
FFS........this is worse than trying to help my 11yo Nephew with his Maths homework.
How many is that then?Ornchurch wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 1:07 pmI know they don't need a separate roof over their heads.

As you stated it twice I'll repeat; I don't have a beloved Tory Party.
I just have the point of view that if we do not have enough enough houses to accommodate those who already live here that it might be more prudent to reduce those numbers rather than keep pumping money in to building new homes.
I keep reading on here that the country does not have the money to pay for Covid for example and that the younger generation will be paying for years to come but where will the money come from to build new council accomodation?
300k in to 11,000 homes. That will be 27 per property then
First off, neither Labour nor Conservative governments since the beginning of 2000 have much to write home about in terms of house building and solving the housing crisis.NuneatonO's wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 12:01 pm After coming to power in 2010 the Conservatives have overseen the lowest levels of housebuilding since the 1920s.
