“It is no wonder that Hannah says she can never dream of buying a new home and will have to leave the place where she grew up.”
Interpreted asidiom
“It is unsurprising that Hannah says she will never be able to buy a new home and will have to leave her hometown.”
The operative assertion is that Hannah’s statement is unsurprising, which evaluates its expectedness in light of the circumstances rather than asserting a determinate fact or causal relationship. It is therefore a stored evaluative judgement, not assessed further.

From speech
Q13. This Government’s top-down housing targets, which are about to almost double in my constituency, mean that communities like Redbourn and Tring are about to see huge-scale development while infrastructure is bursting at the seams and a supposedly affordable new build in my patch costs more than £500,000. It is no wonder that Hannah, one of my sixth-formers, says that she can never dream of buying a new home and will have to leave the place where she grew up. Will the Prime Minister urgently review these targets, and come and speak to Hannah and other constituents to see how these top-down targets are not delivering the affordable homes and services we need, nor protecting our precious landscapes?
