If I lived in Northern Ireland the views of this girl would make me mark an X on the ballot paper against the name of the redoubtable Arlene with peculiar firmness.

I think it infinitely more repulsive to defame an old man on a bogus charge of being a paedophile where there is no chance to sue for slander (because it is said in the HOC) than it is, say, for Chris Williamson to say the Labour Party had gone too far in apologising for anti-semitism (which after all is just an opinion not anti-semitism itself).
I think Watson one of the most odious people in parliament and it is not as if there is not plenty of competition.

Incidentally I have never had a property for let. I just buy equities and more particularly corporate bonds. The companies I invest in may be doing something useful but I am not. I am behaving just like a rentier. I wait for the coupon to come in as the landlord waits for the rent check; same attitude different investment.
There is a problem of rents being too high. However, that is a function of house prices being too high. House prices are too high because a) interest rates are too low, b) there are too many people in this country and c) politicians prop up the market by ridiculous policies such as the "help to buy" scheme.

Do you want to abolish savings? If there are no savings there are no possessions. Without possessions man is either a slave in a communist state entirely beholden to the nomenklatura or he is living in a state of nature where anything goes.

I wouldn't, however, recommend their economic policies. There were copies of the Guardian lying around everywhere, placards for the Green Party from a long past election and yet prices were surprisingly "entrepreneurial".
