Property price crisis? Excuse my yawn

Property prices are ear-bleedingly boring enough in the pub or at the dinner table. But when they become the focus of big political and economic thinking, it is almost enough to make some of us lose the will to live and hand over the deeds now.

Britain's property obsessive disorder suggests that aspiring to a better life can be a passive spectator sport, where you just sit back and watch while prices hopefully keep rising, like a lottery in which all with tickets win. Maybe they will go up far enough to fill the hole where our pensions ought to stand. Or even far enough for everybody to sell up and move to the middle of nowhere, as advertised in myriad TV shows with names like “How to Run Away from Your Life”.
