Another solution could be that if you've rented the same place for x amount of years, you could legally purchase it for the market value.

A bit like a lease on a car.

Ji, do you think people should have multiple babies, with zero intention to provide for them, themselves?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably not, but i think the amount of parents out there with zero intentions of providing for them are very, very minimal... Where you seem to think they are everywhere. So don't take my answer as some kind of "gotcha"
----------------------------------------------------------------------

'Very, very minimal' is still probably a very big number, buy anyway, do you not think there should be genuine consequences for this attitude? These are children after all.

I think there already are consequences in terms of child benefits.

Do i think they should have their children taken away... No, i'm not a nazzi

I don't know what can be done but it's pretty disgusting at how high rent prices are everywhere.

I'm in the Midlands and you're talking £750+ to rent anywhere that's not a sh!thole. When you then factor in all the other costs like electric bills and council tax then you basically need to be on £30k just to survive.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It can be €2000 a month in Dublin for a property and that’s nothing special
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That’s disappointing as I had planned to possibly spend my later years in Ireland living a nice cheap life. Is it much better on the west coast? Galway etc
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It would be less mate although not by a huge amount. It would be far better to buy a property outright there. Would cost way less than Dublin

Is this where our 90s metal bar will be located?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Absolutely. Near to the cliffs of Moher and we can sell hot pies with exotic ingredients to dumb American tourists
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And build tributes to Miss Hoffs
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Side eye pies
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Trademark that name. Also download was excellent
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Awesome dude. How were Slipknot?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Did not see them. Had to fly back Sunday as no childminder for that night

Damn hooligan
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Woah, going all that way and not seeing Slipknot 😡

I’d have just given the kid away alá RDD
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not giving them away. Im saving them from feckless parents who don't want to provide for them.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Does anyone on here have ‘feckless’ for the RDD/Daily Mail bingo?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So we agree that those that have no intention of providing for them children themselves, should face harsh consequences, having been given adequate time to prove themselves capable.

Not a million miles off each other.

No, i do not agree in the slightest.

I think they should be dissuaded from having any children that are beyond their means... But if they do then have that child, or their means change, then society should help to give that child the best possible life.

RDD do you have any kids?

RDD how do you feel about two gay people having a child?

And if the best possible life is with Foster parents / adopted parents?

RDD should men be castrated if they have a bank balance under a certain number? It would solve your problem.

All for it, but if this is a proposal, you are barking up the wrong tree mate.

What’s the solution? Build more houses? Ban people from buying multiple properties? Ban airbnbs?

Migration.

Of course we should look after patriots.

What a silly question.

Robb. I think you should delete / block Pierre. Seems to be on the wind up and is derailing a good discussion.
