    The government have made a housing shortage if you import cheap workers you have to build houses for them. Mrs dismay even admitted it 1 million net immigrants ago with 2 million homes needed.

    Well we force the foreign owners to sell their £500k flats that is 1/4-1/2 a million expensive homes freed up.

    Then add another 1 million tenants turfed out onto the street and up to a million homes no renter can afford on sale from the BTLetters which will go to rich kids.

    We are still 2-3 million homes short but with a million more homeless, genius!

    Because the Chavs* are feckless lazy bastards, it's nothing whatsoever to do with home ownership.

    If a Chav can satisfy his/her needs by means of benefits/dishonesty or a mixture of both, what is the incentive for them to expend their effort and time in honest toil?

    *Note : other delinquent types are available in your locale.

    or, in reality, the only ones who will justify being unsterilised will be the wealthy. But without the poor to pay taxes, where will the wealth be generated from?
