But once you've given a council house to someone, it's gone.
So if you build 50,000 council homes you can solve 50,000 currently exisiting problems and then you're done. Never mind if there's more than that, and never mind if more occur next year.
OK, it's bet than a slap, but it doesn't sound like a good approach to me.
A retired person voting for this kind of expenditure is similar to the position of an awful lot of Brexit voters. The fact that it suits you should not be enough.
