Well yes, more so for those apartments. That was the joke 
They just - afaik - aren't even sold, you pay very many millions of pounds for the right to live there until you die and then ownership reverts to whomever of the aristocrats owns them (?).

Moderator Action: This argument was going around in circles five pages ago. I was also under the impression that I asked people to stop this endless argument, twice no less! Do I need to start banning people from the thread to get it to stop?

^^^ Moderator Action: Yes, but anyone could start a new thread on UK housing if they wanted to continue the discussion.

Ken ratings in the toilet? Not much charisma to begin with.
On a different note, a majority of Brexit voters "would accept free movement’ to access single market".
"Perhaps the most striking finding was that 54% of Britons who voted leave, including 59% of voters in “red wall seats”, said in exchange for single market access they would now accept full free movement for EU and UK citizens to travel, live and work across borders. This could be because the surge in net migration to the UK after 2016 meant that Brexit was no longer seen by its supporters as the answer on immigration, the report suggested."

As an aside, it's kind of sad and depressing that that "hospitality" is now being seen as the "real economy". I mean "retail" is bad enough really.

This was not a feature of the EU.

Yes, but the EU never provided an unequivocal right for UK nationals to retire and live out their

That was always conditional upon the consent of those member state governments.

Randy Andy's spy mate named
An alleged spy who befriended Prince Andrew has been named as the businessman Yang Tengbo, amid a row at the heart of government over how to deal with influential Chinese nationals.
The allegations surrounding Yang have cast a spotlight on the government’s plans for a foreign interests register and whether to designate China as an enhanced risk in the middle of Labour’s new charm offensive towards Beijing.
Yang, who split his time between the UK and China for almost two decades, ran the Duke of York’s Pitch@Palace in China – a Dragons’ Den-style project. He was also given authority to act on the prince’s behalf in Chinese business dealings, according to court documents.
He was also pictured with two former Conservative prime ministers, Theresa May and David Cameron. Yang is also known to have met a number of other politicians, including the former deputy prime minister John Prescott.

Which makes it very funny that IDS was reportedly threatening to reveal the name. The Tories were all too happy to have the association until they could use it to threaten Starmer.
(and I've been very public about how I don't like Starmer!)

Well, everyone knows that Labour's "designated" role in government is to carry the can for the Tories. No matter what happens, it's Labour's fault, even when we're only six months after a 14-year Conservative tenure.
When they intentionally carry on policy, that's them.
When the Tories are obviously just stirring the pot, its on the Tories.
