It is frustration we all hear. Young people - and not-so-young people, because many middle-aged people are now renting and they are trapped as well - constantly tell us what they are paying in rent and how they could get a mortgage where the repayments will be 60% of what they are paying in rent, even with the increases we have talked about. There is a mismatch there and it can be a very frustrating for people. It is an issue that needs to be looked at again and kept under review.
