Where there is doubt, there can be no doubt. Assume nothing, believe nobody and challenge everything. Views are someone else's...Maybe..😎

@JP46251093 London & the SE are the beating heart of the productive and skilled economy & are home to in excess of 20m people so it is in fact a big problem if housing costs are insane. You say "want the London experience" like it's some kind of absurd self-indulgence!

One reason Boomers & older Gen Xers get so indignant when younger people point out their good housing fortune is that over the last half century many "luxuries" have become way more affordable, so they feel that it's somehow ungrateful for us to note huge housing cost inflation.

So many people my age and younger don’t even know what the state pension triple lock is, yet £224.6 BILLION of OUR taxes are spent on it. Don’t you want to know where your money goes? The reason political parties are so afraid to challenge the triple lock for pensioners is that older generations actually get out and vote. Politicians cater to them because they show up. They are the loudest in the room and politicians rely on their vote. If we want to be heard, younger generations need to vote on the issues that directly affect our future, such as: 🔹Student debt reform - tackling high interest rates and unaffordable repayments. 🔹First-time buyer support - easier access to mortgages and schemes for lower deposits. 🔹Childcare for young families - affordable, accessible options so parents can work. 🔹Flexible working rights - ensuring jobs adapt to modern parenting and lifestyle needs. 🔹Housing supply and infrastructure – building more affordable homes in areas with good transport and schools. 🔹Parental leave and pay – improving support for both parents in the early stages of raising a family. 🔹Lower taxes - for those under 25, scrap IR35, lower corporation tax, overhaul the tax rates/codes. Don’t complain that politics only cares about the older generation when they are the ones who vote and actively participate. If we want change, we need to turn up, speak out, and vote. It’s the laziest thing to say “there’s no point, they’re all the same” force them to implement policy by being involved. Start taking an interest in policy and politics, or they won’t take an interest in you.

No man wants his kids to have it less than he did. They will do everything to leave their kids with a better life. Yet collectively we do the opposite. We expect our children to pay for stuff we want now by sacrificing their future. This is the most cowardly act.

Never will understand why old people get so viciously angry when it is explained to them they bought houses at a good time and it would be nice if similar conditions existed now. I suppose it is just insecurity at the idea owning a home really wasn’t a grand achievement for them.
Sandy Tregent@SandyofSuffolk

Read the comments under my original post. You show them houses they can afford and they come up with spurious excuse after spurious excuse why they can't. Good God, these people. No wonder the country is doomed. Hardly anyone under about 40 wants to get off their bums and actually do anything to make their lives better. But they'll moan at pensioners. 🙄

“Maybe if you had a job” Duffy - I am 33. I have had a job since I was 14. Your almost cult-like obsession with Farage changes nothing. The state pension is a benefit paid by general taxation- ie people like me. I’m very happy to pay it - but there are limits to my generosity.

@lukerobertblack I can show you my contribution for each year in employment on the Government website! Maybe if you had a job you’d know that. If you have a job and don’t know that, you’re a fool!

@dawg_e46220 @soetsappies Absolutely. Government's sold a lie telling kids they had to have a degree to get on. 5 years after graduating many don't care about qualifications. They go on reputation to get a job done.
