One of the reasons why there is a shortage of housing is people buying more and more second homes which is preventing younger people in many seaside and rural areas to get a property.

Thirty years ago, I went into the village shop in the lovely village of Corfe Castle in Dorset and remarked to the owner that there were not many people about. She told me that it was because many of the Properties were owned by people from cities like London as second homes.

The sad thing is that people who live in the seaside and country areas are jumping on the property racket by doing the selling and leasing of the properties.

Everybody for themselves now and sod those who cannot get or struggle to get a property!
