Re: The UK housing market
NG is just one aspect of why our house prices are so high
Getting rid of it might have some benefits but there will be downsides - there always is
Other countries do not have it and their markets are becoming unaffordable - and they have higher rents
If NG is keeping investors in and first home buyers out then tough titty - that's the market
As long as my house price stays high I don't give a shit

Re: The UK housing market
You seem to think that removing it will be the total answer to high house prices
It might have some effect for a while but we will just carry on with increasing prices - and much higher rents
Interest rates and increasing supply are the best way to control house prices
Looking at the UK, Ireland, Canada shows us this

Re: The UK housing market
No I have a problem with the 7 billion that could be put to better uses. I now rent a beautiful apartment that last sold for 1.2 million. NG makes me a winner. But its not about me. Its about being smart and not artificially inflating property prices and lowering rental prices where the tax payer pays for this artificial shite.
