rogets Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I feel so sad for the future as we are building on this green and pleasant land, people say there is a housing shortage and that the solution is to build more homes This is not the solution, concreting over the countryside, we want green spaces What will we hand down to the next generation of people? a concrete jungle Is this what we want, the total destruction of our green spaces? This is so short sighted and wrong, we need to think about the environment and whats right for everyone Plus I don't want to lose the value on my homes because if demand is reduced it means my 3 homes will be worth less.

I1L2T3 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 What has prompted your outburst rogets? It can't have escaped your notice that 93% of the UK is not urbanised. That's right: most of us are crammed into 7% of the available land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altus Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 What has prompted your outburst rogets? He's posting from under a bridge again. Look at the last paragraph. He's hoping that people complain about someone having three (probably imaginary) houses not wanting any more built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you let 2 of your 3 homes, that would be setting a good example. ie 2 less houses needed on green land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Plus I don't want to lose the value on my homes because if demand is reduced it means my 3 homes will be worth less. A nice troll attempt, but...nah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously a wind up thread, anyone who thinks we're concreting over the country should look out of the window next time they're on a plane.

ANGELFIRE1 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 A nice troll attempt, but...nah. +1. A quick google says (Vince Cable) we need to build 300,000 per year, wonder what rogets thinks about that and the price of fish. Angel1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berberis Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I feel so sad for the future as we are building on this green and pleasant land, people say there is a housing shortage and that the solution is to build more homes. We build on just 10% of the land space in our country. Germany for example build on 16% and they have not concreted over their country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cid Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I feel so sad for the future as we are building on this green and pleasant land, people say there is a housing shortage and that the solution is to build more homes So long as the population is growing, this will put pressure on the housing stock, its the needs of the rising population that is the issue for the environment.
