Reo - building more houses does not encourage people to have more children. What it does do, is allow people to buy themselves a ‘home’ and get a foot on the housing ladder, or do you expect the younger generation to just rent from greedy landlords taking advantage of the UK’s housing shortage.

I’ve no doubt you’re nicely settled in yours, but what if you were 25 and wanted to settle down, what are your options? Pretty thin on the ground.

If we built 1m homes next week, it would use up less than 1% of green belt, which doesn’t strike me as an issue, when people need somewhere to live.

I assume you’re aware there’s thousands of kids in social care facilities, separated from parents because there isn’t enough housing stock! Mum sleeps on the sofa of a friend, kids are in a dorm facility run by social services etc.

If we don’t build new homes, where are people meant to live? Even if the figure is 10%, it still means 90% is greenland. Should all that be kept for wildlife or do humans that can’t afford to live in expensive areas and are being driven out get a look in? I’m fortunate, as I bought 20 years ago.

What you’re basically saying is that 94.3% of the land hasn’t been built on! Sounds good to me.

Are you a NIMBY? As the population grows, people have to be able to find affordable accommodation, even if it is an inconvenience to you.

Can key workers afford to live in your area, from nurses to the people who empty your bins, clean the streets and staff the shops you use?

So in your area, 90% of land hasn’t been built on, which sounds good to me. Where I live, it’s about 2% that has, which is the UK’s average. I can’t any reliable stats about Eng only, but I’d have a guess it’s around the same.

Sono - the answer is less than 2%!

Bumble - “More trashing of the south-eastern countryside.... sad”

Can you tell me what percentage of UK land has been developed and what is still countryside / green belt?

Interestingly, the previous positive message about progress in the last 12 months has 23 recommendations. Garamond averages between zero and 3 and they’re not doubt the same 3 people

Problem is Garmoan has been banging the same drum every time this goes up and then loses 1 or 2p; looking at the last month there’s not been a huge swing.

Absolutely nothing for someone to state the wheels have come off. Unfortunately comments like that and the constant whining is why people don’t like his negative posts, plus the regular need for others to reassure him.

AJ - does a point though, we don’t need a running commentary on the share price moving 1p or 2p up or down everyday. Adds nothing

5 nil to Man City?

‘built in to the system, won't be changing them out until they have to. Perhaps that could mean the life of that particular centre before it may require a complete upgrade.’

Rubbish - these centres could run for decades as they are. That won’t be allowed to happen, so it’s in the interest of the data centres to look at alternative solutions sooner than later.

it is now stuck at 60p if that's progress, I'm a chinaman.

Mpo - why does it make you a chinaman, or is it just casual racism?

Either hold your stock or sell it, but for the love of god, please stop the contestant pointless moaning, it’s utterly pathetic. Maybe go and start your own fuel cell business.

Fluffed it

A rather blinkered approach……

Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who has previously pledged to power every home in the UK via offshore farms, said: "The Humber region embodies the UK's green industrial revolution, with new investment into developing the next generation of wind turbines set to create new jobs, export opportunities and clean power across the country.

I’ve a 10 year old diesel golf which I’m happy pottering around in and probably doing more for the environment by keeping it than buying an EV, which needs to do 70k miles before it becomes ‘green’

I fear Mchaggis has a much bigger co2 footprint buy numerous new cars and driving them for 3 years on a PPC plan. Nugget springs to mind

Mchaggis, showing his true colours again, ****ging off everyone on this board who can’t afford a decent EV. What a pilchard!

Whatever happened to your constant ‘I told you so’ regarding MM’s keeping the Mcap above 500m; turned out to be garbage. I wouldn’t be surprised if you don’t even drive a car, nor have a bloody licence

Depressing Darren doesn’t hold AFC shares, he buys a few and sells a few on the hope of making a few quid every now and then. Pathetic

It was simply a positive comment to start the week off, that you (oggs) decided to knock. To me that’s more irritating then someone making a positive comment, then calling most people on here loons!
