SIR – In this recession the council should be building more council homes because there’s some people on low wages who will never be able to buy a home and we certainly don’t want to get in a mess where people were virtually forced to borrow money, way above what they could afford.
So the need for council houses is going to get bigger and they should be affordable. Councils should start building and forget about building huge bank balances in Icelandic banks or any bank. Invest the money in Britain for the people who can’t afford very high mortgages.
JOHN SHEARON,
Worcester.
