I'd argue this isn't an example of market failure, it's government failure. The shortfall here is local authority housing, which collapsed under Thatcher and never recovered. Right To Buy truly one of the most damaging housing policies in modern British history.

If you care about the future of the NHS & you see this on Boxing Day, please could you share this?
If we want privatisation to be removed from the NHS, NHS campaigners like me have a *lot* of work to do next year and…I’d just like to see if people care enough about this for our campaigning to work…

Anyone who thinks our benefit system is too generous, has clearly had their common sense surgically extracted by the Daily Mail.
Losing your job is financially catastrophic (esp for mortgage payers, who drop to just 12% of an average wage overnight). And our sickness benefits bill is similarly mean.

Have you blocked the “Politlcs UK” account yet?
Unknown to most, they’re a Tory engagement farm, subtly pushing a narrative.
But pretending to be an impartial news source.
Let’s nip them in the bud, and not give them the amplification they need.
Share this, and BLOCK.

Top one per cent wealthiest responsible for same amount of carbon emissions as bottom 66 per cent
