Re: Can young people can afford a home? Move somewhere cheaper!

Cleaners, bus drivers, refuse workers, retail staff, hospitality workers, nurses, garage mechanics, gardeners, double glazing installers, boiler installers, emergency workers, postal workers, meter readers, traffic wardens, car park attendants, doormen . . . and many more.

Most of the above have no realistic option of working from home, never mind actually owning a home they could sell to move away.

Still, I guess if there's a mass exodus from the major UK cities, homes may become cheaper . . . unless holiday homes in London/Manchester/Birmingham become the next big thing
