Agreed. While I am loathe to agree with what the mail is saying, the Government did promise to sort this out, and has seemingly failed to do so.

The problem is that some familys are large, and the rules still require that they have a house large enough. However, most houses are not large enough to house a family of this size. The only ones that are, are mansions.

But the rest of us are expected to move somewhere cheaper(ie not Notting Hill or Kensington).

The rest of who?

I have not been told about moving anywhere.

In fairness, I doubt there are many 5 or 6 bedroom houses available anywhere that are cheap...
