How did it work in the Victorian days?
Where did over 65s live?

Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses? Bah! Humbug!

Looks like we know where all the asylum seekers are going if they can't go to Rwanda! Or maybe needy families can take over houses belonging to rich voters?

Oh sweet summer chilld. 3-4 bedroom properties are unsuitable for 6 child families, its an infringement of their human rights to force them into such squalid conditions.

Think you all missed the point. They are highlighting the number of homes owned by their residents which could be used for homeless families.

Now might be interesting if they shared how many social houses are under occupied and how they are making these available.

It's ok, all those houses will be sold to pay for care when their owners get too infirm to look after themselves

The thing about larger houses is they are easier to adapt to cater for infirmity, the unused reception can be downstairs bedroom and the downstairs toilet can be extended into another room to create a wet room etc. The garage can be used to store the mobility scooter. There is room for a carer if required. ( I've seen this done).

I need all those rooms for the books, computers, radios, tvs, and accumulated test equipment.

I wonder if I can donate a couple of Racal RA17 to Oxfam. .

That kind of captures the problem; people need space for hobbies and storage. So many houses and flats I look at have no room for any 'stuff'.

Yup or lifetime mortgaged to pay for Saga cruises.

[xoggoth]

I need one of my two spare bedrooms for my little puppet parrot.

[WTFH]

Any consideration for those that need extra room for caring?

That doesn't sell copies of the Fail.

Four in 10 over-65s live in home that is 'larger than they need' says Zoopla

• Some 42% of over-65s live in a home that is 'larger than they need'
• Zoopla says this equates to 2.6m homes that could be used by younger families
• Nine in ten over 65s have at least one spare bedroom and half have two or more
• The research also found that nine in ten homeowners over 65 either lived alone or just with their partner, yet more than seven in ten lived in homes with three bedrooms or more.
  
  Nine in ten of those surveyed have at least one spare bedroom and half have two or more.
