 Saving - or rather failure to save - -
you'll be means-tested on it and end up at the same (or worse) level

Thats as be at this moment in time, fast forward even 10 years let alone 25+, interest rates climbing, country unable to service its massive and Still growing debts.

The present rather peculiar and the next incoming terrifying govt are busy trying to extract the last few quid from anyone who managed to accrue, by hard work and dillingence, a few quid to see them through the famine. Though when the last drops of blood are finally squeezed from the few stones where is the next subsidy for a destroyed unviable economy going to come from when the country has no means to support itself other than tax even more the dwindling number of net contributors.

Those who think the state will provide all in the medium or long term future are in for a nasty shock i fear.

Housing won't be so much of a problem, those (without influence) who bought houses deemed then to be too large for their needs may find themselves in a strange position IMO, they are the next target group for the finger pointing to take blame for the country's ills i suspect, such propaganda has already started i fear.
