Spot on this, imo

4. "How do you address the housing shortage without a housing policy?"

Well of course you must have a policy, but the focus should be on the houses, rather than the policy itself

Politicians of all parties have become too insular, too wrapped up in their own little bubble, too isolated from real people in the real world, and too bloody fond of the glamour and the (self awarded) perks of their positions.

Theirs is a mindset that to achieve something, all that they have to do is to debate, hold meetings, make rules and laws and regulations and write them down. Real life doesn't work like that.
