Though maybe we would have enough houses to go around. The population has increased from 3m to 5m during our membership of the EEC/EU, largely driven by EU immigration and reverse Irish emigration. This is squeezing our young people out of the housing market, producing sky high rents and of course a homelessness crisis.
Maybe we could do with a Brexit cold shower.
Sure. 50 years of emigration and a stagnant economy linked to a stagnant UK economy and we wouldn't have a housing crisis now. Except maybe the problem of what to do about the deserted villages, towns, countryside, etc.
