I feel like I'm in loving Groundhog Day here. Every 3 months the Tories bring up the same plan they had 3 months ago and the entire press shits itself while it forgets that they've ever heard this idea before. Can someone please just call them out on this bullshit cause it's so clear they've got absolutely loving nothing.

It is when everyone who does it refuses to engage with the point that the media's problem is the politics and not the person

I watched Owen Jones at the Tory conference and it's just full of withering husks of people. Also quite interesting that all the young Tories at least seemed aware of how the wider public sees BoJo while all the older ones were fully on board with his absolute madness.

Also felt quite sad for the one woman who said she couldn't count the number of men who had made unwanted advances on her and thought it was normal :smith:

Probably more relevant Is that on current standings, if Labour a run a more effective campaign than 2017 _and_ the polls are wronger than they were then, that means that Labour will be perhaps be able to limit the loss of seats to two digits. There is a reason the Tories are keen on the early election that all opposition parties are trying to delay.

Optimism is useful, but you have to base your optimism on reality to avoid it becoming delusion.

Basing thoughts on reality is a good idea and you should try it some time

Arguably having a lodger isn't the same as renting out a 2nd property as you're giving up your right to complete privacy in your own home and the use of a spare room for visitors. J Corbs has had lodgers and I don't recall the thread getting all outraged at that.

There's also hugely messed up power dynamics of living with lodgers which are wide open to abuse. Obviously not all or even most live-in landlords do this but we shouldn't just give them a blanket pass.

We don't know how reasonable or unreasonably the £400 a month is. The £436 payment on a 30 year term suggests a mortgage of around £90,000 which may or may not be a large proportion of the value. And as already stated it's possible that includes bills too. I just don't agree with the "it would be morally superior to leave the spare room empty than ever rent it out" logic going on here.

Even then she's still profiting from the wealth equity gain on the house as it increases in value.

Not sure why 'profiting off another human's basic need for shelter' is such a difficult concept for you to grasp.

Would it be ethical to rent a room at 1/2 the price of the average in your area if you have a two bedroom apartment and you only need one to sleep? Or would the only UKMT acceptable solution be to host someone for free? Maybe bills?

Their share of bills/council tax is generally considered the ethical option.
