If that's the basis of your argument, you'll have to stop UK residents
buying holiday homes in the UK too, then.

Or, indeed, anybody but "locals" from buying anywhere rural. Or, come to
that, in three-quarters of London or several other city centres.

Who ever promised that people had some right to live in an area just
because their parents and/or grandparents happened to live there?

Would the world really be better or would it be immeasurably worse if
nowhere ever _changed_...? Hell, take that logic to extreme, we'd all
still be living in caves in the Rift Valley.
