Letter printed in the Swindon Advertiser 20th December Title Young People Betrayed
The young generation in Britain have never had it so bad. House prices today have risen far beyond the reach of most young people.
Britain is short of four million houses. The laws of supply and demand have taken their effect on the housing market. Rents have gone up to follow the rising house prices. While wages have failed to keep pace with rising rents.
The alternative of renting from the council is no longer an option because the Tories have sold of most of the council houses under the Right to Buy Scheme.
The young generation in Britain have been betrayed. House prices are far too high. The young cant afford to rent or buy. They have never had it so bad.
