(He seems to think housing corporations are a S Korean idea ; in their British form they are more Socialist than LVT.)<br />He might have been reading our propaganda .There is a faux naivete about such statements as this from his key 7.xi.15 Telegraph article "It's time to build foundations for.... UK Housing market".<br />"Given that homeowners vote in larger numbers and still represent a majority ,its almost as if successive governments have been happy to see prices spiral ,knowing that the resulting "feel-good factor" will garner votes in sufficient numbers regardless of the broader impact" "Almost as if..?" But not bad for a Torygraph journalist as also is "A state sponsored UK Land Corporation may sound too radical but this is a time for bold action" Too radical for some Georgists in my experience.
