    Yeah, there is no reason for a government to maintain a significant surplus. Any "unexpected" revenues should be reinvested into the economy. The government does not need to horde money, it has actually got a "magic money tree" if needed in the Bank of England.

    It isn't a cool thing to pretend to believe. The population size of any country is linked by numerous studies to the standard of living and levels of poverty in said country. There are exceptions, but for example China had to get a handle on its exponential population growth before it could...

    No it doesn't. Unregistered actually defaults to the Crown by law. The crown meaning something different to private ownership by the Mountbatten-Windsors FYI.

    Would need to be a global concensus as population growth is a global problem most pressurised in the developing world.

    Who is blaming brown people for housing issues? Ridiculous.

    Can we get facts right before debating? Quick google: 30% of land in England is owned by private family estates and aristocracy. 30% owned by public bodies 18% owned by companies 15% unregistered (no owner) 7% owned by other private individuals Scotland is more extreme where 50% of land is...

    I mean, regardless of policy, there simply is not enough resource to build homes at the rate required. Resource is both people (planners, surveyors, inspectors, arcitects, site managers, brick layers, carpenters, fabricators, electricians, plumbers, roofers, glazers etc) and materials (stone...

    Well without population control the math isn't mathing. I mean just for example the population of the UK is increasing by about 500k-800k a year. Whereas 200k-250k new homes are built every year. This is the primary driver of unaffordable housing. It is basic supply and demand/competition.

    Yeah we need less people, both for the planet's sake and for resource distribution.

    Well its essentially a mass benefit so in the current global system, you would need to raise the money via taxation or borrowing or issue it via the central bank, which would risk severe inflation brought about by a devaluation of the currency globally. So you would need every single major...

    nobody would pay more tax than they are required to. Companies are no different. It isn't a fairness issue, it is a system issue. The system dictates where you pay tax and how you can reduce your tax liability. Taking part in globalisation means you can set up an operations company in The...

    UBI is unworkable at a large scale. And will likely never happen. Population control is what is needed.

    The UK has now crossed a historic line: in the last financial year the government spent £333 billion on welfare and raised £331 billion in income tax. It is the first time in the UK's history that welfare spending has overtaken income tax revenue.

    If there was a further referendum i'm sure it will end up in the same sh*tshow fracturing that entailed in the wake of the first referendum. Rejoin is a completely different kettle of fish from "remaining" too. New member states are under a legal obligation to join the Euro as soon as they...

    Manipulation implies people voting a certain way due to influence or pressure rather than their own consideration and weighing of arguments. Which does them a complete diservice and is devoid of any evidence. Actually in many ways, the referendum result was entirely predictable because it was...
