With average UK house prices nearly double US prices and, I suspect, house sizes approximately half those in the US, we are looking at prices per sq ft in the UK 3 to 4 times the US level. With some 90% of the UK still not built on, how long will it be before pressure from the younger generation demand a wholesale rethink of restrictive planning policies that have artificially inflated UK prices to extortionate levels?
