This makes that £660,000 flat at Highbury look like an absolute bargain.

We all know people are getting priced out of living in London due to the ever-increasing cost of renting in the capital, but this is on another level. What do you reckon £500 a month could buy you? A small double-room in a shared house? A single in a nicer area? Guess again. One Londoner showed the bed under a flight of stairs that she was shown, and asked to part with half a grand a month for. Incredibly this is not a joke. https://twitter.com/alex_lomax/status/649146213242175488
