Will work inside IR35. Or for food. -
I can't imagine the bubble will pop, it's electoral suicide for whoever is in government when that happens so even the corporatist Labour party will do anything to stoke the housing marketSocialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.
No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment

I know of a Pensions adviser that used to commute from the south to town every day, they realised their customers would be quite happy for her business to located out of London, she is doing very well employs a few people and lives in a little village then walks across the fields to work.
I have heard similar stories elsewhere.
Get the right people up there and business will start.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

3. Do I really want to be financially committed to something for 20 years AND be unable to move to find work (at least not quickly).Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment
