Money always moves from one area to another like in the stock market. When one sector is struggling another will gain a bit as investors move money out of one area into another.
The money now required for social housing fire safety is phenomenal and it does raise the question what else will suffer as a result. Will the Government actually meet this shortfall or will the payments ultimately be met by the Housing Associations and ultimately the tenants. It is certainly required and welcomed and we need to massively improve the fire safety standards in these buildings.
But what and who else will suffer as a result. Where will the money be taken from in order to pay for it and what will be the consequences. The first area that seems to have lost any funding is Potholes....! All the money we pay the council and have you ever seen so many on the roads!
