This can be addressed with social housing which could be allocated first to in-demand workers such as nurses. It also has the advantage of bringing down prices in the private rented sector.
For whatever reason, Londoners who think they’re so switched on when it comes to stuff like Israel and Palestine, seem to have no interest in getting on the streets and campaigning for more social housing investment, for more tenant protections and the like.
Is it some kind of middle class embarrassment? Because campaigning for these things, is some kind of tacit admission that you are *affected* by them, i.e. you aren’t rich. And that gets in the way of the default mode of behaviour: namely, *pretending* to be rich.
Is it that or the much better salaries on offer in places like Australia
I’m shocked to find out that nurses don’t want to live in a city that is too expensive for their wages
Wow, who knew that losing 15-25% of your salary over a decade has ramifications?
What can we possibly do about this? Ah better just bury our head in the sands. Absolutely ridiculous the idea someone who has an incredibly important job should be paid well.
Surprise surprise…
This country is struggling and there doesn’t seem to be any kind of hope in sight.
First Christmas in a long time that noone seems to be in the spirit at all.
