Are all these expensive houses being bought by all these migrants who are on the minimum wage jobs where an English person couldn't get a mortgage, because they're not earning enough?

Probably a fair amount of the minimum wage migrants houses are privately owned and rented out to them. Possibly paid for/topped up by social services.

Whatever your social leanings the demand for housing, whether rented or bought, is pushed up by the amount of people coming into the country.

What is net migration? 250000 a year from what I remember. So we would need an extra 250000 homes a year being built just to keep up and not including home grown demand. 2017 saw something like 200000 built although figures vary depending whose you read.

The only way rent and house prices will fall is if demand falls. That isn't going to happen unless immigration falls.

A simplistic view and of course there are other aspects but basically 250000 into none doesn't fit.

Oh, still recycling that same old bullshit £10k figure that you can't provide a genuine number of how many people actually receive?

The issue as I see it, should all NMW furriners vanish overnight, is then you have the national unemployed folk who are now forced into low paid work, because the employers have no need to pay more due to the surplus of labour. Which in turn means one section of the teat suckling society is replaced by another.

It's figure juggling at it's finest, replacing the untermensch of one type with another equally despised type.

Stop peddling Brexit lies. Pretty sure my salary is at least 4 times bigger then yours.

Also the facts show ALL EU migrants contribute to UK's tax revenue AFTER subtracting ALL tax credits and possible benefits
£12bln per year. That is £230 million per week real money contribution. Put that on a bus you ignorant kipper:

Seriously? Last time I have checked in a free market society we don't eliminate people to regulate the demand like China.

I thought free market natural supply increase is the solution.

UK has a lot of problems and none is due to EU migrants. FYI Germany with more migrants and decent house prices.

The UK housing market is not free. It's artificial monopoly created by the land owners. And houses are used as investment tool to speculate and invest money NOT for actual housing.

Means it is economically viable to buy a house and leave it empty. The price rise is bigger then the bank interest rates or even other invetsments. Don't get me even started on money laundering and the fact UK is a magnet for Russian, Chinese, Middle East and criminals from all over the world that are investing stolen money in properties here.

There is not by accident UK decides to leave exactly when EU decided to make stronger laws about tax avoidance and criminal money laundering.

Quote:

Analysis of Government figures shows that there are more than one million additional homes above those required for households in the UK. This "housing surplus" has nearly doubled from 800,000 spare homes in 1996 to 1.4million homes at any one time in 2014

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/02/03/number-empty-homes-hits-highest-rate-20-years-calling-question/

Land monopoly and obscure and unfair 17th century planning permissions create the artificial properties market monopoly and house shortages. Not related to immigrants whatsoever.
FYI UK is the ONLY countty in the world where there is a lease hold for private houses.

There is a very simple way to break the monopoly and make the market free and fair again. Make property reform and tax all land and house owners based on size and house value.

That will make empty land, empty houses and speculative investements in houses economically unsustainable.

UK is the only country in Europe that doesn't tax property owners.

The current Land Registry for England and Wales holds less than 65% of all land and properties, 35% is unregistered and nobody knows who own it, and that in 21st century in the age of
computers.

At the moment it's possible for some types of working households in the UK to get over £10,000 in these benefits, and that includes newly-arrived families from the European Economic Area (EEA).

This can't be changed without agreement at EU level to change European law.


Some workers could get £10,000 or more

Come on Vallage, even you're not that daft. So you're saying not one single EU migrant is claiming more in benefits than they contribute in tax? Rolling Eyes

You're biased badinfo-graphic is aimed at the hard of thinking. It includes the biggest contributions such as tax and NI on one side, but only working tax credits and family allowance on the other. What about the big social costs like social housing, education, healthcare and income support?

Quote:
Between 1995/96 and 2015/16, spending on housing benefit increased by 51%, going from £16.6bn to £25.1bn. Not an inconsiderable sum of money.


Where do you think this 51% increase is coming from? Has the UK population increased by 51% in 10 years? Has it feck.


Would you care to assign a %age or an actual figure to the some?

Some small businesses are thriving, and not complaining about all these apparent double taxations you seem to think happen to everyone.

In 2016, some completely unbiased European think tank that specialises in economics said:

"Statistics referenced by the House of Commons suggest that 0.26 percent of total UK child benefit claims are paid to EU migrants whose children live in another EU member state. 0.09 percent of all child tax credit claims are made by families with children residing in another EU member state."

Neither mpd72's nor Val's crime stats make sense.

Meanwhile the anti-Brexit news seems to have stepped up a notch, but it's a familiar ploy, like this;

You’re missing the point and on thin ice calling others a moronic xenophobic. You claimed not one EU citizen makes the U.K. a worse place. You then seem incapable of distinguishing foreign born with EU citizens.

I won’t even bother explaining how Romanians are around 2,000 times over represented in crime stats when compared to a U.K. born person.


You imply that each and every EU citizen is working 16 hours and creaming £10k in benefits on top, yet I'm still to see you put anything like a figure on just how many are doing it.
