Jeremy Corbyn and senior Labour MPs have called for homes left vacant in Kensington and Chelsea by overseas investors to be “requisitioned” in order to rehouse those left homeless due to the Grenfell Tower fire.
Now, if that’s a permissible thing for a prominent politician to say in relation to people left homeless by a fire, then why not (it’s just a little stretch) also for others made homeless, or squeezed into ‘shoeboxes’ like sardines because of impossibly high rents? And if it’s permissible to talk of requisitioning vacant investor properties in the UK, then why not here too?
I think I’m liking Jeremy Corbyn’s no nonsense, common sense approach to the world.
