The government is set to announce what it describes as one of the biggest overhauls of financial regulation for more than three decades.
It is expected to loosen rules on banks introduced after the financial crisis in 2008 when some banks faced collapse.
The changes will be presented as an example of post-Brexit freedom to tailor regulation specifically to the needs and strengths of the UK economy.

Let's face it, Fishy Rishi will prop up the UK housing market using tax payers money, some kind of loan thing, that collapses, costs £100bn and 10% to some non-dom Tory donors.

A mortgage of 4.5x salary may be affordable at near-zero but maybe not at 6%.

Hard to see this not happening with interest rates soaring, rampant inflation, a cost of living crisis, recession and unemployment.
The markets are expecting another 0.5% from the BoE next week, and for rates to peak at over 4% next year.
As a side note, I listened to an interview with the previous BoE boss and he was saying a healthy interest rate level would be 3.5-4%, so pretty much where things are probably going to end up next year. If this is not affordable for a lot of people, well then there's a big problem somewhere.

Removing the affordability check for a 3pc rate rise implies that rates are going to increase and lots more people won't be able to afford their mortgage
