Comment on The real Help to Buy story by carshalton estate agent

you hit right on the nail
“That’s naked corporate welfare. That’s the real story here. Not about the agent herself, but about how the industry at large is using taxpayers’ funds to line their pockets, inflate prices, and shift economic consumption away from productive assets towards bricks and mortar. The prime minister, apparently, lacking faith in the free market is all too happy to participate as a spokesperson/prop for this government-backed, get rich scheme.”

Hey Ewanwatt,
Thanks for the info, I am guessing it will not be Mitt mainly because he has no working experience there. Newt has some wonderful border strategies…Michele is on the Intelligence Committee and she would seem to have a advantageous comprehending of the subject…Doubt Cain would be magnificent but who is familiar with. Huntsman would quite likely be fairly quality soon after his encounter with China…
Great Job! ]]>

I imagine that both sides are hamstrung by internal politics – the Liberal Democrats do not want to attack students in general, so the coalition finds it hard to attack student protests. And the Tories do not want to do anything that provokes calls of “same old Tories”.

Sarah,
I have let the blog slip just because of not having much time. I am going to update it on occasion, primarily with news on my writing at the Commentator and City A.M.
Thank you for your kind remarks.
Ewan

On the other hand, the NUS are not opposing the changes because they care about poorer students – as you say, the changes are good for poorer students. Probably the leadership is motivated by their anticipated future careers in left-wing politics. If the same changes had been made by a Labour government, the NUS would be singing its praises.
