    If someone were to say "nomadism would have to be properly catered for in housing provision" we'd think they were mad, as the definition of nomadism is
    a member of a people that has no permanent abode but moves about from place to place, usually seasonally and often following a traditional route or circuit according to the state of the pasturage or food supply
    ...erm, it makes no sense, but that's probably why the lunatics in power want it to be made law...:eek:

    Because, like, houses don't move. Sure, we rent out houses, but if nomadism was properly catered in housing, wouldn't that mean the houses were bought so that they could be lived in for X amount of time before they moved onto another nomadic housing project?
