Published

‘Renters will be frustrated that they are not receiving any support.’

Political Commentator for Young Voices UK, Ben Cope, discusses Jeremy Hunt’s new measures to help homeowners with mortgage repayments but argues it will ‘only prolong the cost of living crisis for renters.’

    Be clear the government is deliberately making the renter situation worse, 1.2 million extra migrants this year alone!!! adding extra demand on a very tight market!!!

    Am I missing something? Can we not increase VAT, won’t that curb spending habits and pay back the National debt? Moreover, won’t rich people have to contribute more as they buy more expensive things anyway?

    All this Government has done in the last 13 years is borrow money whenever there is a problem.
    They cannot afford to print or borrow more money.
    They are clueless and useless.

    Here’s a suggestion… treat everyone with respect and provide help equally !
    Not everyone owns a house .. and I’m sorry , you get a mortgage , you know ahead that potentially the rate could climb !! So why should YOU get special treatment over others !!?? You made the choice…by the way I have a Mortgage so I know this is my responsibility
    It’s the Govts job to get this inflation under control not babysit my mortgage !!

    Mortgage-payers deserve help. Tenants do not! Mortgage-payers are better than horrid common tenants who are just losers who will never own anything!

    I feel that if any relief measures are put in place, it should be for owner/occupiers only – the "buy-to-let" model is clearly struggling, but should be left for the market to sort out (just like any other business).

    All of us over leveraged and bought bigger properties over the pandemic! Now we can't cope with interest rate rises! Save us!!!

    The day when government goes bankruptcy will be a good day.

    This will always available so all this is doing is making people aware but really nothing new is happening here. They never helped savers when interest rates were kept artificially low so I don’t see them helping now.

    Rental support also lags.. the Local Housing Allowance is still set at 2020 rates, (locally) which is making it only approx 60% of actual average rentals.
    The rental market is becoming impossible for both tenants & landlords & this govern has made things worse, undoubtedly.

    People who rent are not all Tory voters so why help them? That’s the problem with leaders who favour only their vote base. They are only holding the fort until the people remove the lot

    January 5, 2024 at 10:46 pm

    Every time government gets involved, they make things worse.

    Just let the markets fix them selves. Stop kicking the can down the road.

    All these "help" schemes have exacerbated the issue

    So people who can not afford their credit cards lose their credit score but people who can not afford their mortgages get a free ticket? This is how the uk government functions, god forbid property prices fall and renting becomes less profitable for all the mp’s wealth from property.

    January 5, 2024 at 10:46 pm

    So at minimum to get into a property you need the help of generational wealth plus mortgage support…

    January 5, 2024 at 10:46 pm

    The TAX payer should not be supporting peoples mortgages, that is unaccaptable, The government cannot be allowed to 'take ownership' or control of private property. The people bailed the banks out, time for the banks to return the favour.

    CAUTION! Before you alter your mortgage terms be sure it will not affect you CREDIT SCORE – it could cost you £1000’s. Act with caution.

    It’s almost like they want people to default on their payments so homes can be repossessed and what’s your bet that they’ll be rented out to the undesirables!

  28. @charlotte8121

    January 5, 2024 at 10:46 pm

    So the middle class have parents to help them while the poor have circo hoovering up all the rentals so they don’t even have a temporary home let alone mummy and daddy paying for their owned one!

  29. @saxonstacker1078

    January 5, 2024 at 10:46 pm

    ….there's going to be a lot of new homeless people in the next 12 months whether you rented or owned. It's looking very grim.

    Banks and politicians put us here.

    I wonder how many 'overstretched' themselves when mortgage rates were low without budgeting for interest rate rises?
