The UK Housing "Crisis"

    The coalition government promised to reduce the influx of people from hundreds of thousands annually to tens of thousands. How have they done? The following quote is from the Home Office Immigration Statistics:

    "The number of people granted settlement (allowed to stay permanently) reached a record 241,000 in 2010 (including dependants), having increased significantly in recent years. However the latest data, for the year to June 2011, show an 8% fall in grants of settlement (208,000), with decreases in both the work and the family categories

    In the second quarter of 2011 there were 4,800 asylum applications, 9% higher than the same quarter in 2010 (the second lowest quarter on record), mainly due to an increase in asylum applications from nationals of Pakistan and Libya."

    Property analysts clearly link this influx of people to the housing crisis in the UK.

    What is the governments response to the need for hundreds of thousands of new homes to house these people? England has an appalling housing crisis so what will the government do? Decrease inflows? No, they propose to overturn the planning regulations that have at least preserved some semblance of "England" in the face of epic population inflows over the past two decades:

    Mr Shapps, the housing minister said that: "there were also plans to allow land twice the size of Leicester to be released in order to build homes across the country."

    This should make any English person weep. Our governing classes are happy to continue this epic migration, destroying our natural and social environment, creating problems from adult illiteracy to economic collapse for no reason other than that it makes them appear holy. The electorate must promise themselves that they will not vote for the pro-migration parties (labour and lib-dem) and avoid voting Tory until this migration crisis is resolved.

    Incidentally, if you are anti-immigration you have a democratic tool, just never vote Labour again, Labour set up the current mass migration in 1997 - just look at the migration graphs.
