environmentally sensitive houses. Put the pressure on government, national and local, to deliver good public transport links to get people efficiently and without cars from their homes to work. But do it! Do something! Third, make it easier for first time buyers to get into the market – and that means tax breaks and offers. That will free up rented accommodation for others, it will also put dynamism into the market (because people living longer not only mess up pension arrangements, they also decrease the supply of houses into the market at the top of the chain).
Roofs over heads; better work/life balance; more green construction; a housing market open to the many; businesses with competitiveness and skilled people being able to succeed through a planning system that works. In a world where China wants your lunch and India wants your dinner, where the most successful major economy in Europe still has house price inflation and too much homelessness, it’s not much to ask is it?
Fill in all the squares in the grid so that every row, every column and each of the nine squares contain all the numbers 1-9!

…This could have been written yesterday! Very little, if anything has changed. Appalling. In this Brexit-oppressed society of ours, I suggest we realise and quickly, that every rough sleeper, every young couple desperate to get on the housing ladder, every growing family ready to move all have skin in their game… if we don’t want a business-hating government in power, we’d all better do something radical, quickly and often everywhere!
