Answer - because the tories have been bought out by them and the average person from the UK decides its immigrants fault instead of the mega rich (thanks to the daily mail and the sun)
Yeah but at the same time lets acknowledge that a generation has completely underpaid into the system and now we are starting to see the problems that has caused. At the same time, the property ponzi scheme has favoured them as supply has dried up.

For reference, I stand to gain from this policy in the long run as my parents have significant (but not obscene) wealth so this isn't about envy or a generational attack (I know these are the favoured tools of people without a point to make) but about fairness and cold hard logic.
