  1. I don’t understand the logic behind this. There is a housing crisis not the best time to be making it more expensive.

  2. Will be directly passed onto the public with increased house prices.

    This government is so stupid.

  3. Concrete has gone up in cost by about 50% in the last 2-3 years. This levy is really helpful in keeping construction costs high.

  4. Nothing stupid or shocking here. This is policy.

    House prices must remain high at all costs so FFFG can satisfy their base.

    Every intiative from help to buy, cost rental, first home amongst others and now this have been strategically rolled out in a timely manner to maintain house prices.

  5. Bail out builders that cause problems like pyrite before

  6. Proof, if it were required, that the goal of this government is to keep the cost of homeownership out of reach of the plebs.
