Should the UK seek to re-join the EU?
dugsbody replied to Bruce Banner's topic in House prices and the economy
But when we did that across the whole of the EU it was called undemocratic. -
EU pensioners rely on state pensions more than the British do, because we (the working young) are paying for all the defined benefit contributions for the older generation. As someone who will never afford as nice a house as my equivalent older self, nor have access to a juicy defined benefit pension, I don't think I'm going to support policies that make me pay more tax to increase the lifestyles of the already lucky generation when we'll never attain those same lifestyles.

The question shouldn't be how often he has been correct but how often he has been incorrect. It's easy to always predict things and then silently drop the predictions that fail. -

Why do you post stuff like this? I don't understand the reason for rubbing your winnings in people's faces. -
I laughed. Everyone should do a freedom of information request to their local council to see how much land has been made available for private purchase and build via the "self build register" and how many have actually been sold. It'll probably be somewhere around zero. Another Tory "promise" which delivers nothing. They're in the pockets of the big builders.
