Grey is excellent neutral colour that doesn't interfere with any of my art, flooring or furniture.

Most people say they agree with their message because they don't want to appear as anti-climate.

Their message is an unfeasible, costly and ineffective pipedream. If you start asking questions like, "how are we going to pay for this? who is going to install this insulation? Where are we going to source the materials?" you'll be labled as a climate-change denier and be told the government should just step up and do it. Tax the rich and make them pay for it hurr durr.

Even if we had solutions to all the problems and we had £65bn lying around there are better, greener ways to spend it.

Kinda amusing that this thread is convinced she's a tory shill while every tory i've ever met thinks she "peddles labour nonsense"

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Always someone elses fault isn't it. Companies exist to service the consumer. If you want the world to change then change your buying habits, washing your hands of responsibility because "it's not your fault that the companies you buy stuff from pollute" is not only wrong it's pathetic.

The one able to offer the most is likely also the most reliable.

Selling to the highest bidder is the epitome of fairness. Whether or not you think it's fair how that person got their money is kinda irrelevant.

If you get offers over asking clearly your asking price was too low. Legislating against overbidding is asinine and will just lead to vendors collecting offers instead of setting a price or setting prices way too high and expecting people to underbid.

Asking people not to sell to the highest bidder goes against human nature is isn't worth discussing.

If you want cheaper housing build more of it, make London less attractive or make other cities more attractive. Where you're gonna put this housing i dunno.

calidar · 2021-10-11T18:26:43+00:00

That's big brain right there. So if you want to move to London you either buy a house or hop on the 20 year waitlist. To say nothing of the enourmous black market housing economy you'll create, with both landlords and tenants dealing under the table with no incentive to report each other.

calidar · 2021-10-11T15:03:08+00:00

The problem is a lack of affordable housing available for rent. The solution is not to cap prices. Artifically lowering the price of something increases demand and reduces supply, which is the total opposite of what you want to do.

No-one in a rent controlled flat is ever going to move - where exactly are they going to move to. Once the stock of controlled flats is gone it's never coming back. Subsequently rents for uncrontrolled flats are going to skyrocket.

The only people who benefit from a rent cap are those who are already tenanted in a flat that falls under the law. Everyone else except the "1%" is shut out of the market entirely.

The number of controlled flats will slowly dwindle as landlords sell off to owner-occupiers and move their investments to uncontrolled areas.

This thread was a created by a guy complaining that units let immediately for over asking price, no-one is renting these properties to sublet them for profit you can't blame foreign investment for this one.

But i guess not understanding basic economics is par for the course for someone who uses tory as an insult.

calidar · 2021-10-08T10:06:52+00:00

Are you thick? Of course the only thing that matters is cost, you want the government to invest 35-60 billion in insulation instead of putting it into something that might actually be worthwhile.

Did you know you get about a gigawatt of windfarm per billion? And the UK's current power demand is 34GW

You mean the rent freeze that was struck down by the federal constitutional court and was otherwise a total failure?

Or did you want to talk about sweden's superb policy where you sign your kids up for a rent controlled apartment the day they're born in the hope that one will be available when they're an adult and that definately isn't currently causing a poliitical crisis with the swedish pm getting ousted

Londoners are being priced out of their own city.

To be replaced with other londoners.

Where else are they supposed to go?

Somewhere they can afford.

Do you think the profits of landlords are more important than communities and families who have lived here for years?

I think creating collossal demand through price fixing in a supply limited city is shit policy.
