Sure, and as I understand it anyone living in these places is probably doing reasonably well as the leaseholds are too short to get a mortgage. But as a country we're not doing particularly well building quality housing in cities either, so you can see why it's an emotive subject for some people.
- ndsipa_pomu 2y agoYes, we do have a big problem with housing (I'm in Bristol which seems to be the most expensive city for housing/rent outside of London). It just strikes me as entitled behaviour for someone to choose a remote place to live and then to complain about it being remote. There's a host of issues with trying to allow people to spend so much time driving at speed (or not as the case may be) just so that they can enjoy living in a remote area - traffic congestion, pollution from fuel, tyres and brakes, danger to pedestrians and animals.
