This MP claims he can't afford to buy his own home on £70k salary. Sounds like he can't manage his money to me.http://www.standard.co.uk/news/politics/conservative-mp-admits-he-cannot-afford-the-deposit-to-buy-a-house-a3176886.html …

@juliahb1@joeltaylorhack average LDN first time deposit is £90k. You can go on holiday for a few hundred quid. Would take lifetime to save. -
@AdamBienkov@JoelTaylorhack but he's talking about buying a home in NW England, not London! -
@JuliaHB1@AdamBienkov there's been a huge increase in 20-34yr-olds living with parents, housing costs clearly a factor -
@JoelTaylorhack@AdamBienkov yes, they are a factor, but not the only one. Parental homes much nicer now than they used to be. -
@JuliaHB1@AdamBienkov saving money by staying with his parents to save money seems sensible to me. -
@JoelTaylorhack@AdamBienkov it does, but it's a lifestyle choice not a need. Very different things.
