Oooh, its so exciting,
Can't wait to get back to the United Socialist Republic Kingdom next year! Perhaps I can get a job loading lineflow in the Peoples Bank, work my way up into the Politbureau.
Failing that I guess I can always help with rebuilding the Berlin Wall...

What is worrying reading about this rescue is that it is now clear the UK is developing a subprime problem comparable with the US.i.e. this isn't about US speculation but UK housing speculation. It is about a year behind the US in its bust cycle.

Is this a surprise? What did we think that self-certification mortgages were for? Never mind the income, who needs ability to pay, when you have the property as security. As long as its value stays high. And people don't start taking 125% mortgages. Or boosting property prices by buying up prospective BTL flats on interest-only loans.Originally posted by BlasterBates View PostWhat is worrying reading about this rescue is that it is now clear the UK is developing a subprime problem comparable with the US.i.e. this isn't about US speculation but UK housing speculation.
