You do have to clarify everything you say as you have intimated it's relatively simple ,even Sajid Javid knows it's nigh on impossible!


Sajid Javid pointed out that the average first-time buyer in London last year needed a deposit of more than £90,000.

'The communities secretary, Sajid Javid, has lambasted baby boomers who believe young people could afford a home if they cut back on nights out and avocados, saying such critics were out of touch with a broken housing system.

Javid warned that without urgent action to make homes more affordable, an entire generation could becomes rootless, and resentful of both capitalism and politicians.

His speech in Bristol came shortly after Theresa May visited a social housing estate in north London, as part of a concerted government push on the issue ahead of next week’s budget.

Javid had tough words for “baby boomers who have long since paid off their own mortgage” who believed there was no need to build more homes, saying they were “living in a different world”

dear God, do I really have to explain that, it people can afford that on rent, if they no longer rent they can afford to save it...


He is talking about Central London and probably a house!, you can get a one bed flat in the burbs for 225,000 upwards, we all have to start somewhere right? unless of course you want to move straight into your forever home, how much is a one bed in the suburbs of Leeds?
