the lack of affordable housing starts back with the previous conservative government, with the 'right to buy' policy, which I have, in principle, no objection as I live in an ex-council house, but the money raised by selling them off should of been ring-fenced to creat more new community housing, and not rely on private industry to build cheap houses and sell at a massive profit.
With regard to taxes, it isn't what comes out of your wage that causes the problem in the UK, it is the tax on almost everything you buy that kills us.
