Hammond looks petrified, no doubt he'll find the money to look after his paymasters though.



Any coincidence the number of Tories wearing orange today?

He's having a bit of a meltdown, he's yelling constantly, losing his rag and then not addressing the actual budget.

It's a bit strange. He might have valid points but he's not delivering them well.

I only heard part of the budget, the most disconcerting thing is the forecast continuing fall in GDP and productivity.
Soemwhere along the line they will have to raise taxes.
The stamp duty bit will help to increse house prices.

Plenty of money for EU Contractors tho'

I'm no Hammond fan but seems counter-productive to start the budget discussion with a silly couple of jibes.

Why not wait to hear what he has to say and then get stuck into that?

It's not just about building more affordable house whilst of course that helps. We have a generation of young people who are simply not earning enough to leave home. This includes many educated to a level far higher than those who have gone before. If the parental money tree can't be shaken many cannot see a way out.

Unfortunately I fear many can't see much further than a life living at home, on low wages, temporary contracts, zero hour contracts and unpaid internships. Buying houses as an investment by those with money helps to keep prices high. I'll admit this does provide rental stock but at the expensive of those wishing to get onto the housing ladder.

Until the economy improves dramatically or radical steps are taken to increase the pay of ordinary young people I fear affordable housing policies will be nothing but weasel words. If things were different demand would naturally dictate supply.

In my lifetime I have seen the standard of living in this country rise for each generation until this one. I really feel for their future.


I see your point but there's definitely some green shoots in there with regards to young people getting a house.
What I would like to see was a social housing scheme...the previous generation benefited from cheaper social rents with later the option to buy that house at a discounted price.

Clarkson has made a few good documentaries when he's actually being a proper journalist (WW2 soviet conveys one was good as was the one on Ismambad Kindgom Brunel). Unfortunately that's not what he does the majority of the time.

Rope bought up by large corporations so they can sell it back to you at thrice the price?

My son and his wife and our first grandchild (due in February) are in the middle of buying their first house with a little help from us. Hammond has just given them a £1,600 early Xmas present. Thank you very much sir. I applauded the television.

Some may say the selling of social housing in the Thatcher years caused problems that are still with us. Some of that housing stock in London has found itself into the hands private landlords and of international investors, some of latter are being left empty. There are examples of flats in high rise blocks needing sprinkler systems where works cannot be undertaken because their foreign owners will not cooperate.
