UK Housing Crisis Jami Alken

Buying a house is off-limits to many thanks to rising rents, pay freezes, and a lack of affordable homes. But it hasn't always been this way. What went wrong? The book is an easily readable work on the UK Housing Crisis, the biggest domestic issue in our country today. Few other books on UK current affairs have more relevance in a post-Brexit society, on the biggest issue that successive governments have done nothing about for 40 years. For the price of a new plastic Fiver, you can find out why the under-40s cannot afford anything but basic Shelter, if at all, and why the older generations have spent their lives chasing ever-rising house prices. At times Amusing, at other times Sobering, this is more than analysis or an opinion. There is a wider debate on how we want to live our lives and what the Housing Crisis has done to our Freedom. This gives the options available to our society to truly reform the Housing Market and to ensure that this situation never happens again in our society. It argues for a Popular Movement to force Reform on the Government. This could be bigger than Brexit. The Rigged Housing Market.
