Government promises to get people into debt, and onto the housing ladder
In an effort to maintain the still incredibly high prices of properties across the UK, and avoid two-for-one offers appearing that would cost less than a bag of chips, the government is to promise first-time buyers in England what are being described as “free” loans up to 30% of the price of new-build houses and flats, in an effort to reinvigorate the housing market and prevent people reaching the conclusion that they were really, really stupid to see their homes as their pension funds in the first place.

Every police force in England and Wales should publish a monthly map outlining the places where crimes have occurred, according to Conservative leader David Cameron. Those living in areas that are crime-free can then feel smug, while those living in high crime districts can feel worse than they already do because they probably already know what’s going on in their neighbourhoods.
