UK doomed

[oracleslave]

"The IMF warned on Tuesday that British house prices could fall by up to 10 per cent in the next year."

After 10 years of growth......BOOMED!

[DiscoStu]

10 percent in the next year

That'd take them back to mid-2007 prices

[DimPrawn]

10%?

That's the price last week.

So if I have this right. The IMF are saying Britain could be hardest hit by the financial crisis, while Gormless says we are better placed than other economies to ride a global slowdown. Who says economists never agree on anything?

Shirley you wouldn't call Gormless an economist?
