British Kakistocracy
“And a very substantial chunk of those, in some London boroughs, are owned by Charles Gow, the son of the government minister responsible for the Right to Buy, Ian Gow. And his wife, Karin. And the Gows started buying in 1996, exactly at the low point of UK house price/average earnings ratios, at £100,000 a gaff. Nice trade! They’re now renting some of them for £1,500 a month for four-bedroom properties. All the bullshit about claimants getting eleventy thousand a second in housing benefit? That’s Gow’s kid, that is.” Well shit.
