There are plenty of properties in the UK to supply homes for all of the population. The problem is one of an unbalanced economy, with unequal distribution of wealth, opportunities and demand and also rampant speculation and profiteering.

The problem is government housing as it subsidises the rental market and creates a false rental market.


Rather than restrict social housing to those in need social housing goes to those who really don't need government help the likes of Bob Crow when he was alive.


Many black cab drivers builders etc etc on ?100k a year living in council housing.


It's not means tested because that would unreasonable so we tax payers fund the rental market.

No.. I don't, but it's replacing a shop I DID shop at.. and many others that had somewhere they could afford to shop at.

That 84-90 vertical sign is disgusting!


The rest is acceptable for the progressive


Luddites' would rather have mud huts hey ho that's progress


Agreed on m&s food it's for lazy people with more money than taste and a lack of food knowledge that's 80% of the local population catered for then

Yeah... seriously that sign is crappy.


Ready meals... it's all about how much/little time you have, and how you choose to spend it. When it's already 8pm by the time the kid's asleep, and you need to get up at 6am the next morning... a limp ready meal and a beer in front of the TV will do me just fine.

I got the impression that the M and S that is coming to LL will not be just one of those rail station types, but one where you can actually buy real ingredients. I can't remember the exact corporate nomenclature but I'm sure there are variants of M and S outlets.

Maybe the expect a lot of customers to arrive by helicopter or light aircraft even then the size is over kill they're probably looking to catch the eye of Timothy Peake.


The really clever thing about those numbers is that standing outside on the pavement they're so big that no one not even the postman would be able to see them, maybe visible on the opposite side of the road?

Those pictures show an obvious massive improvement over the crappy/ugly old building that was there before. It was a real dump.


I'll probably only shop there once or twice a week, but I'm still delighted there's also a half decent convenience store opening there too.

      The Mansion Tax

      By malumbu · Posted

      What worries me is all the talk of these foreign architectural styles.  Art Deco (French) and Art  Noveau (Belgium - can you even name ten famous poeple from Belgium),   Thank heavens for good old British Arts and Crafts, harking back to previous times.   What do you think those who are asset poor and cash poor may think?  Don't you feel there is a case for evening things out? Get real.  There are numerous anti-Labour threads and a few of you who clearly hate everything Labour, no doubt going back decades.  Not everyone of course who have posted on this weird thread has such strong views.   For balance there are a lesser number of threads on other political parties and a former prime minister, but they attract far less traffic, and one person seems to go out of their way to defend Farage

      Is there a viable alternative to Sadiq?

      There is a possibility that poor air quality leads to adult onset asthma.  The Lancet did not confirm this and stated that more work was required.  10,000s of deaths are linked to poor air quality.  Surely it is good that our Mayor wants to further improve air quality.  That is the important aim, rather than pick holes in what he said.

      There's an indicative map here of whi falls foul. Sevreal dozen in SE 22ml. I dont think this is up to date though. And by the time the government have done their "independent" valuations I think we can expect a lot more to fall into this tax trap.   https://taxpolicy.org.uk/2025/11/27/mansion-tax-map-where-the-money-comes-from/
