"Thatcher was the one who turned homes into commodities rather than places to live"


Was it not labour first proposed selling off local authority housing stock?
Was it not labour that built an average of 562 council houses per year. And Mrs Thatcher's Conservatives? 41,343.?

Facts dear boy, FACTS! not flights of fancy or extremely dodgy rhetoric


"The Labour Party initially proposed the idea of the right of tenants to own the house they live in, in their manifesto for the 1959 general election which they subsequently lost"

So the reality is Labour first moneterized housing stock under public ownership, and further drove up its value by a creating a paucity of further newbuilds!

Not exactly a shining testament to times of socialist misrule, is it?
