I think very few people believe in selling stock off and not replacing it. My question really is: what is wrong with selling off social housing responsibly, and reinvesting to build more social housing to create a virtuous circle and enable people to become more independent? And I suppose, really, this may be addressed to everybody, because everybody here owns their own home. Now, I won’t embarrass people; some people own more than one home. And yet, do you find it ironic that people here, everybody owning their own home—don’t you find it ironic that you’re telling working-class people that they’re not able to own their homes?
