Planning approvals increased by twenty percent in June, ahead of new housebuilding drive by Labour government
People have got to realise why more affordable house are not built and what we have to do that changes that.
All politicians in all parties know two things, older people vote more, and home owners (aka older people) want their house to stay worth as much as it is as a minimum, but will vote for you if you make sure their house is worth more and more.
This being so, they do not want more houses built near them, lessoning the value and don't want anything at all built near them, hospitals, car parks, power systems, infrastructure, etc., lessoning the value.
So if we want more affordable homes, and to continue to have them; we need to out vote more than the people above, and make sure we vote in every election like the people above, and most important thing! to keep this going so everyone can have home they can buy... especially the first people who get them... when you get your home don't stop voting... don't worry if cheaper similar homes get built near you and DON'T! become one of the people above wanting to get mega rich because your house price goes up and up so you keep voting to stop houses getting built near you!
Politicians hold the keys to more house and more houses means cheaper houses, so:
we need to become reliable voters, and in larger numbers than the home owners
we need to donate to politicians, a little money from a larger number beat a few people who give a lot of money!
that money buys the politicians to do what they want, because the more money a politician has... the more likely they are to win elections
When they have won their election, they start to worry about the next one, unless they know that the same people are going to help them win again, then they have the time to do what the most people who helped them win wants! to get their votes again! and to get their little but more money next time! then they do what the most money wants again!
hope that makes sense, we need to tell each other; make a pacts with each other, lets get our homes for each other!
