My guess would be that those stats aren’t known. Not least because the 6m revelation is astonishing, it was estimated by ONS/academics that 3.7m was the figure (including 0.4m from the ROI). But there’s a wealth of other information here for you...

Hi. It’s now grown to over 6m. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/eu-settlement-scheme-applications-brexit-b1876988.html This is millions more than previously known or discussed.

In terms of the literal housing shortage, I definitely agree about the latter but not the former. Many overseas investors buy new apartments off plan in places such as London, Brighton and Manchester, then leave them completely empty. Also holiday homes in central London and the West Country...

Through in-laws and work, I know people who were successful. They had kids. I suppose they’d have a priority over you? For better or worse.

When I studied geog at school in the early 80’s, the UK’s population was 56m, it appears that it may be 68m now, it really took off from 1997. Borne out by 5.5m and growing of EU citizens who’ve just applied for residency status here. We need them. And everyone needs to housed adequately...

360 units are at full market value being sold by Cala. 75 units are being handed over to a registered social landlord, for allocation to people on (normally) long lists they hold of people desperate for a new start. “New Monks Farm, Lancing In partnership with CALA Homes, Saxon Weald is...

Infrastructure? If you include major new or enlarged roads, which makes sense, almost everyone then moans about that destroying the planet. A selfish argument I’ve frequently heard from nimbies sitting pretty in comfortable homes on the urban fringe is that the new homes should all be built in...

In my own close family are nurses and teachers. I spoken personally with folk getting/who’ve received affordable homes from Hyde Housing and a separate small affordables development near me. We have an unemployed single mum who’d lived in b&b for years, teachers, immigrants, nurses. All happy...

40% of these new homes are affordable, being allocated and managed by a registered social landlord. NON-PROFIT MAKING. Under a range of schemes such as shared ownership. Rents are significantly below market rents. I know through my work and a very close by development to me that these will...

The houses weblinked in this thread are the private sale homes. 180 others are only available through the housing association and registered social landlord Saxon Weald. On an affordable rent or shared ownership basis.

BG's no fool. The Sompting Expressway clearly works ... there's bugger all traffic on it. Possibly due to it being a post-carbons world in 2025.

I like quizs. Is that an architect's graphic of Sompting in 2025?

They usually are. Churned out by developers to blueprints. But young people and struggling families are elated to simply get a new home. A genuine question as I don't know; are new developments of housing in Germany for the working classes more attractive? (I've only seen the beautiful new...

You're wrong I'm afraid. Net migration over the last 21 years has been in the hundreds of thousands per year, x 21 years. The undisputed facts are that there are currently 3.9 million citizens from other EU countries living in the UK, with 0.9 millions Brits living elsewhere in the EU. With...

The UK's population in 1997 was 58 million, now it's 67 million, and projected to reach 70 million. The genie was let out of the bottle with an effective open doors borders policy. I voted remain and recognise that most of those who came to the UK have worked hard. But the number of new...

The Peter Sutcliffe approach to dating.

Giving circa 2,000 folk a much needed suitable home.

Perhaps tom Hark meant, TB developing the site in a company on his own, as ŵith his other property interests, completely unconnected to the Albion?

IF part of a (corporation tax) group structure, new tax losses incurred by one company (the football side) can be offset against taxable profits of another in the group (the housing developer). That may not be the structure or reason, but that advantage is possible,

At the local level, most councillors from all the parties side with Nimbies. There are far more votes in that, that siding with land owners and the homeless who might move into the new homes. This is a general comment, after closely following several planning applications in Brighton, Hove...
