Should billionaires and multinationals pay fair tax?

[carmanmemoranda]

Nope. You lot are.

Ultimately, we either have a PRS that operates under free market conditions (with appropriate legislation in place to ensure properties are safe, clean and fit for purposes) or we have a PRS that has certain conditions placed on it (through legislation) to limit aspects such as rent charged, profit made etc.

You can't have it both ways.

And for those who advocate a middle ground, what exactly is the middle ground?

Why is it a binary choice? Why can't there be more council houses and more houses for sale?

Neither of those options stops the private landlord being a landlord

Again.

Where has that been said? By who?

Why do you make stuff up? Is it easier to answer ?

We've sorted that bit in the last few posts. I've emailed Rishi and Keir (covering all bases) with the solution.

I'm just off the phone to every single house builder in the UK. I asked if they can build, at profit, a 3 bed semi to be sold for £105k i.e. 3x average salary, whether building in London or Leven.

I think my phone must be playing up, because time after time I didn't get any response. I did hear a few chuckles ...

I guess you didnt ask why houses are at their least affordable ever

House price to income ratio has eased, but higher rates offset affordability benefits

Downward pressure on property prices following last summer’s peak, combined with strong wage growth, has seen the UK’s house price to income ratio fall back from a record high, according to new research by Halifax, the country’s biggest mortgage lender.

No

You are stuck with a binary choice, and that's the whole misunderstanding.

But feel free to keep making stuff up

You can stop now, we've sorted it.

No more responses required re PRS views thanks, we got there in the end with post 731.

post 731:

I guess you disagree

I presume you agree that people should be stuck in rented accommodation, paying out so much of a percentage of their wages, they can barely afford to live and will never be able to afford to buy their own home


I guess you know better than the charity Shelter and research from 16 independent commissioners:

"Three million new social homes key to solving housing crisis​

Posted 14 Jan 2019
A landmark report by Shelter’s social housing commission published today calls for an ambitious 3.1 million new homes, extending the offer of social housing to many more people.
After the Grenfell Tower fire, the charity brought together 16 independent commissioners with diverse backgrounds from across the political spectrum to examine the housing crisis in England as it exists today."

We advocate the building of thousands...millions of homes so that the bottom falls out of the market and greedy, grasping bloodsucking parasitic, misery inducing Rigsby's are stuck with their depreciating shítholes.

It seems the research and evidence agrees with Noseall not you

You havent sorted it, you are completely wrong

Shelter did the research, they have the answers, not you

Explain Marxism.

 

[carmanmemoranda]

So in short.

You either agree that houses should be out of reach for so many, or you don't.
