"I used to live in a truck, it’s the most amazing, liberating lifestyle, can you imagine going on holiday & never leaving your home? Unfortunately it does attract certain types of people, but there are normal people living in vans & boats up & down the country. I got pregnant & was threatened social services would get involved if I didn’t move into a house, 20 years later & I'm desperate to do it again before I get too old, children don’t leave home in a hurry these days "You’re very lucky and hope you get to live with freedom again. It’s something we’ve discussed but as with most good things, real life is getting in the way presently. Doesn’t stop us looking and planning though… one day  | |||

"Reports from Bristol, made famous by yobs throwing statues into the canal, that people who live in vehicles such as lorries and caravans has risen from a pre pandemic figure of about 150 to a new figure of over 800. But what has driven this influx of the traveller lifestyle. According to the Mayor of Bristol it is down to the cost of living crisis. Is this true? What's going on here guys. It's all over the news" There's been a big community living in vans and caravans by IKEA for years. The rising numbers are likely due to a lack of available housing, driven in the main by a multitude of developments of student accommodation where it would make sense to instead build social housing. The sheer number of new student flat builds is astonishing. It's also pushed up private rental rates in the area. | |||

Quite disgusting really. | |||

"There's a really interesting and very sad article on Sky news today about the housing situation in Hastings. I don't know how it's come to this..." It not that hard to work out councils sold lots of property cheep under the right to buy that was the first big mistake. Then they struggled to run the housing they had so it was given to Housing Associations I work for a company that in turn works for Southern Housings and we all the problems. From Damp to over crowding to under occupancy where one person is in a 3 bed house. But the state of a lot of the housing stock is old and damp.. It's not very good on the hole. But thank for bringing the sky news to my attention. But it is what it is now. | |||

But thank for bringing the sky news to my attention. But it is what it is now." I live in an under occupied 3 bed. I tried downsizing and was told there were no 2 beds available due to the bedroom tax. So I'm essentially rattling about in a house that's well beyond my needs because there isn't anywhere else for me to go. | |||
