The help-to-buy scheme is there to help people to buy homes. People come to all of us in our constituencies and we know that the help-to-buy scheme has been of major benefit in the context of young people buying their homes. I find it contradictory where, in one breath, Sinn Féin proposes that it wants people to get homes, and yet it opposes a measure that directly benefits people by assisting them to purchase their own homes rather than rent for evermore. Sinn Féin needs to be honest about its ideology. It has not been honest about it to date. I rarely come in like this but I have heard this and, for me, the question is quite simple. Is Sinn Féin in favour of home ownership for young couples and young people or not?
