Housing Crisis
Poetic Licence said:
I would imagine this is an issue all over the world, if you are young now it\'s practically impossible to be able to buy your first property, but it is even more expensive renting, we have more people still living at home in their adulthood than ever before. We hav a property shortage on all levels, but especially what they call affordable housing , which in my are starts at 350,000 pounds, how is that affordable, will leave it there. Valid write should be said about this

You are so spot on in what you said but I notice an accent on your post by by the person you wrote about I was kind of surprised cause he writes on everyone\'s post so I\'m kind of curious did the post that you put out here has anything to do with the post that he put out today I believe he\'s reaching out and saying it was a big misunderstanding and I\'m not a genius but makes sense and what he wrote today

Supply and demand.
Cull the population, no housing demand.
Developers sitting on prime sites, governments complicit in allowing it.
Second homes in seaside towns. You can see why you can\'t get a house.

Well I haven\'t been around for a while, but I feel this has always been the case especially on this site. When I last posted regularly I would read 95 per cent of poems posted on that day, leaving feedback on around 80 per cent. My own poems I would be lucky if 15 people read them on the first day of being published, which is a bit of a one way street. Anyway to get back to old ways have a great weekend!!

I had noticed that.
Just assumed the super poets on this site didn\'t need to comment on others work.
Does make it a bit unsociable, mind you, and you do tend not to read the ones who don\'t comment.

Tristan Robert Lange said:
Dave, this is biting and brilliant. From shysters’ schemes to the roasting of pollies, you’ve captured the rigged nature of housing politics with clarity and force. And yes…it’s much the same here in the U.S. The game is tilted toward homeowners and developers, while lower-income buyers get promised “help” that only drives prices higher. Always appreciate your edge, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Well said, your poem focuses on the housing crisis, the impact of free market dynamics on affordability, and the role of government in perpetuating inequities. It highlights the disparity between policy intentions and their actual impact on marginalized populations.

9/11 was a hammer blow to America.
3000 dead, but more importantly an invasion.
This strikes to the heart of Americans, and I don\'t doubt countless lives were avenged from it.
Sadly, the innocents always get it and no memorial will bring them back.

The Influencer
Paul Bell said:
See if some influencer came online and just said to me.
Paul mate, give me ten grand, and I\'ll spend it at will.
Oh, and you\'ll never get it back.
That would influence me to at least give a double feck off.

Dave, this cracked me up and stung at the same time. The satire’s sharp, the financial-speak alienation lands, and it feels true to that daily grind of tuning in but being shut out. A witty and biting piece, my friend...but, of course, you forgot the classics: ‘Quantitative easing adjusted for liquidity shocks in the derivatives market with hedged volatility swaps’. 🤯 Sounds impressive, means sod all. Foreigners out, indeed… 😂🌹🖤🙏🕯️

Patriotism
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Dave, this is razor-sharp. You frame patriotism not as pride but as accident...born of chance, not choice. The humor in that “sexual coupling on British soil” line makes the critique sting all the more. It’s blunt, bold, and brilliantly subversive, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I don\'t mind people escaping into their gaming machines and shooting up the world.
It\'s when the clowns actually translate it into reality.
Seemingly, kids spend more time gaming than they do in school now.
Probably why you never see them in the holidays now.
