5. Lack of social support, and council housing for UK families.
It's all called lack of UK GOVERNMENT planning, investment, and who gets the blame ... Europe and immigration.
And the uk trying to get skilled labour on the cheap.

Can't argue with any of that, it's been my mantra for 36 years, so I was obviously made up when The Economist of all papers put out an article this week that for capitalism to work it needs a robust welfare system, in the UK, the Tories, including Blair have spent 40 years trying to destroy it.
They piss me off with their use of the 'Heroes of WW2' as a right wing nationalist thing. Having fought and lived through the horrors of war our 'heroes of WW2' knew better than anyone the value of looking after each other and elected a Labour Gov to build a social and economic model that did that, including forming the NHS, watchig Remembrance Sunday made me even more determined to honour those people by fighting for a UK Labour Government to rebuild the society and model they wanted for the UK.
It is absolutely shocking that right now we're at the point we were at after years of war in that respect, scandalous, we're in a post war situation of needing to rebuild and remodel our society and economic model because of what 40 years of Tories has done to the UK, they did it, it beggars belief.
