Good question. Let's build on that.

Why not use the 420,000 empty homes to solve the housing crisis?

Makes about as much sense as fudging about obsessing about plastic bags, 4x4s and carbon offset schemes when every year deforestation accounts for more carbon consequence (in terms of 'sink') than the US produces (as emissions).

Priorities, anyone? Prevention better than cure?

It's all about seeming to do things than actually doing anything worthwhile these days.

Surely repair or restoration can be accorded value in the target-obsessed, and rewarding political cultures of today.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.

Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.

I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
