Madam, - I must say it is very generous of Pat Rabbitte to offer to buy us the houses we want rather than the houses we can afford. I'm sure those who make their living in the property business will also be thrilled at such a sure-fire way of keeping property prices artificially inflated.
Might I make the radical proposal that if a person cannot afford to buy a house, then maybe it would be best not to buy a house. - Yours, etc,
BILL MURPHY, Patrick Street, Dublin 8.
