so how do you feel now

But Paul you are paying 100% of your OWN rent which is both propper and correct, thus you are no being subsidised and are paying full market share thus your housing association has the income stream coming in to allow it to build more housing.

Barney complains there's no houses available for young British couples trying to get a start in life, and he also whinges about people living in multi bedroom houses on their own being unfairly treated because they are being asked to either downsize to let the young families move up or pay fair market share. He also neatly forgets that many of these people are living off the tax payers beneficence.

But Barney forgets that it was him and his fellow socialists who not only let 4 million more people into the UK but also failed to regulate the building industry for THIRTEEN YEARS so allowing them to only build executive housing, and they allowed house prices to run out of control because of a shortage of properties because LABOUR did not build hardly any affordable housing whilst filling up those that were available with immigrants.

As of 2010 the UK thanks to LABOUR ( no one else) and LABOURS IMMIGRATION (Unemployed, unemployable, criminal your welcome to come and live here) and HOUSING POLICY ( build big exec houses because we can tax them more) we were already 2.5 million homes short and its gotten nothing but worse. Families with infants living in tiny flats in tower blocks grossly overcrowded or stuck in hostels and B & Bs because SINGLE people are occupying 3 and 4 bed ( and a few 5 bed) council houses and (A) they wont downsize and (B) don't think they should pay more than they would for a 1 bedroom flat.

Even if we went berserk and started building thousands of affordable homes on brown and greenfield sites it will take over a DECADE just to meet the housing need from 2010 never mind 2014 after the tories let even more migrants pour in. So young families with infants and toddlers trying to work and raise a family live in tiny apartments and squalid hostels because Barney and his mates don't think that the single tenants living in subsidised multi bedroom houses should move or pay market rates.

So lets look briefly at how LABOUR and the left think it should be done

A young couple meet in 94 and get married and start a family in 97 , They buy their first house together in a small ex mining village in a Labour stronghold.
First Labour scraps the MORTGAGE TAX RELIEF which hurt the young couples meagre incomes
Then Labour scraps the MARRIED PERSONS tax allowance thus again punishing this young couple at the start of their married lives
Then Labour over the following nine years allows COUNCIL tax to more than DOUBLE
Over the same period LABOUR rams up tax and fuel duty on both Petrol and diesel thus sticking the boot into the most VULNERABLE AND MOST POOR PART OF SOCIETY the RURAL WORKING CLASSES.

But wait, over this period the father has worked hard, put in extra hours and set aside some much needed funds into a small private pension for him and his wifes old age. And along comes the socialists over the following years to keep hitting these working class kids efforts by taking £5 Billion chunks of money from their private pension schemes.

But this set back does not deter our hard working family, they now decide to move fro their two bed terrace into a 3 bed semi, but wait look at the prices LABOUR ALLOWE THE MARKET TO RUN OUT OF CONTROL and ordinary houses are now unaffordable for working class kids , they look at the deals on NEW DEVELOPMENTS but dammit 99% of the new homes build are EXECUTIVE HOUSING way out of reach of the kids.

So as they have totally outgrown their terrace they apply for a COUNCIL HOUSE but they are told they are now LOW PRIORITY because (A) they already have a tiny house (B) There's only 3 kids in their family where as the majority of immigrants often have 4 or more kids PLUS both grand parents to house © All the current housing stock is full and none has been built for 13 years (D) Many tenants now living on their own wont downsize ( or pay market share).

Meanwhile over the last ten year of our couples lives the girls MUM has been widowed and her income decimated and se is struggling with the high costs of living, she can heat or eat or pay her rent OR council tax but not both. But Labour does not listen and sentences her to 60 days in prison for not paying her massively inflated council tax.
So today there's two adults and three teens living in a two bed terrace paying £1500 a year in council tax being told the kids will have to travel 60 miles to the nearest 6th form college but because both parents work THEY will have to pay £800 a year for EACH child to get a bus pass for college.

Isnt socialism wonderful
