    Hitting London with a ballistic missile would bring the rents down. Maybe this is a good thing.

      Well it would likely put them up, seeing as it would remove supply but, if you know Londoners you’ll know it won’t do a damn thing about demand.

        At least they have good public transportation. But yeah, anyone making less than £100,000 a year, good luck finding anywhere with a train commute of under an hour.

          We moved into a home county. I grew up in London, but it’s just too expensive. We could have gotten a place there, but it would not be a good one, not be in a good area and likely be beyond our personal budget (the banks would give us the money, we wouldn’t accept it).

          Not regretting it at all really.
