    I watched a program where a developer was explaining why his development was such a good deal for the housing association at 5million for 10 houses! I only payed attention as it was the Welsh village that my father in law came from and at the time houses where selling for about 40k in the village

    The problem with central government and local government bodies is that historically everyone always employee's someone slightly less intelligent than themselves so as to not lose there job to them in the future the problem now is that they've got the point that most villages are now missing...

    That's nice but most of the homeless people I've spoken to on the street don't want a house so making houses available to these people without first dealing with the assorted issues that have lead them being there won't achieve much

    How would you rate the UK's handling of this pandemic?

    I watched the man spend his entire political career not answering a single question that deviated from the narrative he wanted to spin while promising everything to everyone that strikes me as a man who's only mental will is to tell the story how he thinks it should sound regardless of what's...
