Dispelling Myths & Reinforcing Facts
No-one has the right to refuse others the chance of home ownership. The short-sightedness of those who act on the NIMBY approach are simply selfish by denying those less well-off somewhere decent in which to live, thwarted from home ownership, forced to spend an ever larger proportion of their net income on renting or a great deal of time and money commuting to and from work. We sincerely believe that saying no to house building is not an option and that those local authorities which do not fulfil their duty to provide more new housing of the correct type and affordable mix will surely mark the beginnings of their own structural and long-term decline.
