      Seriously.
      Indeed. I though prospective British Citizens were supposed to understand the philosophy of the country they chose to live in and abide by it.
      Instead this new Labour shower have imported a bunch of terrorists, criminals and communists.
      Hard Brexit now!

        No guilt unless such sale adversely affected sas like him going bankrupt.

        Do you understand we are not talking about small things here? It's not buying a second hand car that breaks down later and maybe written off, those people who bought on the peak are likely to have screwed lifes for 15-20 years, if they are family they are likely to get divorced, children will be without father or mother, that's the consequence of sasguru's actions. Second car salesmen are the honourable gentlemen compared to that.

          I don't expect him to feel guilty though - one needs to have conscience for that .
          You need help. Seriously.

              How did SG know that prices would fall? It is a free market.....

              Are you against EVERYONE who works in the city?

              Do you blame SG for owning any propert atall?

              How do you feel about Diver with his 32 BTLs?

                  Let me explain, you're clearly struggling a little.

                  In the UK, we operate a capitalist economy. This means that people largely take responsibility for their own actions. Miraculously, this system has produced a far better standard of living that alternatives such as communism.

                  Please feel free if you need to ask any more questions.

                    Surely it is the labour government who encouraged reckless borrowing who are to blame? Maybe if they encouraged hard work and enterprise(like in the free market) things would have been okay?

                      You still think that my prediction of 50% reduction in the City in the next few years is crazy? I am thinking I was rather conservative about it now.
                      Yeah, yeah, yeah.

                      I remember adolescents claiming just that after the ‘crash’ of ’87, the Asian of ’97, LTCM, ....

                      I've been in this game a long time.
                      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
