      It is, but if you don’t own your own property then you are are the behest of someone else. We really need a national scheme where people rent to buy to stop this sort of thing happening. Houses are not being built to meet the rise in the population. This will be a story repeated manyfold under our current systems.

        We need so much more social housing. The fact that someone vulnerable is unable to be housed in social housing in the area speaks to how much of a shortage there is. I would have thought in terms of banding he would be right up there.
