If only there was some way to harness the inevitable hand-wringing and pearl-clutching from the right over refugees crossing the channel, we could generate enough power to heat the country for a week.
60K via the channel, possible 200K from Ukraine, 50K maybe from Hong Kong, 200K usual net immigration from elsewhere. Could hit 500K this year.
Anyway, in totally unrelated news, average rents are now over £1000 a month for the first time.

Supply and demand. As a landlord I am rather happy to have more competition for housing.
