Kirstie Allsopp: Last News

Channel 4's Kirstie Allsopp has come under fire after saying 'loads' of youngsters can afford to buy a home.

Kirstie Allsopp, 50, has faced a lot of backlash following her claims that young people would be able to afford to buy houses if they “moved somewhere cheaper” and “gave up Netflix and the gym”.The Location, Location, Location presenter was called out by Piers Morgan yesterday, who claimed her opinion was coming from a “woefully privileged” place.Piers, 56, took to Twitter yesterday afternoon to blast Kirstie for her claims in front of his 7.9 million followers. This comes after Kirstie told The Sunday Times she bought her first house with family help at the age of 21, admitting she feels “enraged” when young people say they can't afford property.Piers’ scathing tweet about the presenter read: “Every time Kirstie Allsopp trends, I check why and see she’s said another unbelievably stupid, ludicrously ill-informed and woefully privileged thing. “Then I wait for her to respond to the entirely justified outrage by throwing her toys out of the pram & quitting Twitter again.”When Kirstie, daughter of Charles Allsopp, 6th Baron Hindlip, bought her first house with the help of her family, the price would have been £112,000, compared with £255,556 for the average home today (adjusted for inflation). It has been widely reported that young people are finding it more and more difficult to get on the property ladder - a fact that Kirstie appeared to take issue with.She said: “When I bought my first property, going abroad, the EasyJet, coffee, gym, Netflix lifestyle didn’t exist.”“I used to walk to work with a sandwich. And on payday I’d go for a pizza, and to a movie, and buy a lipstick.

Kirstie Allsopp has taken to Twitter to talk about the PCR test she has to take before returning to work.The property expert, who has worked with Channel 4 for two decades, seemed baffled that her crew is already said to be taking safety measures yet are still forced to take a test.But what appeared to have left Kirstie fuming the most was that the PCR test can cost anywhere from £59 and upwards, prompting her to speculate who's collecting all the funds.And if she's made to take these tests often to continue fronting her Channel 4 show, Location, Location, Location, Kirstie made sure to hop on her social media to try and get some answers."Please can someone who isn't making money out of Covid safety advice like @f1rst_option," The TV presenter tweeted in view of her 425,000 followers."Tell us why we can't use LFTs in order to go to work together in TV, we still have to do PCRs in order to work together why? @Channel4 @PactUK."Kirstie followed up with another tweet, explaining the cast and crew's procedure with testing before bringing them back to the set."No one on the team can stand within 2 metres of each other, Phil & I included, unless we have done two PCRs two days apart," she angrily explained."These tests are far more expensive, whose interests are being served by the belief that they are 'the gold standard?'"Fans flooded Kirstie's comment section as they weighed in on the matter, with many appearing to agree with the TV personality."While the government sit together in parliament and not always wearing masks," the Twitter user @Lynncar34691947 wrote.@KLEoglu1 added: "Because its all a pile of pants !!!!!"Just stop doing the testing."No one else going to work is doing it."Another fan argued they were tired of
