People on here have been forecasting a crash for at least the six years I have been reading this board.
For most of them it's all they have in life.
The fact that it owuld be business as usual under the tories is lost on them

The UK economy grew at a faster annual pace than previously estimated in the second quarter of 2007, official figures have shown.
So we have a booming economy & super-low inflation.
0.5% off the UK interest rate then, so the "boom" can continue.
You mark my words.
Barratt Developments, which built about one out of every 10 new homes sold last year, said its sales had fallen between 5 per cent and 10 per cent over the week ending last Saturday compared with the week before.
Delivering annual figures today Mark Clare, chief executive of Barratt, said the company would typically see a "strong upward trend" in sales reservations in September, the end of the first quarter of Barratt's financial results.
Barratt is the first of Britain's housebuilders to go public on a sales fallout from the collapse of Nothern Rock. It cautioned that it was "not yet clear how quickly the market will recover" and said investors should assume that there will be "downward pressure" on the number of properties it sells in the short-term.

That's just what we need another expansion of the money supply with more poor credit.

Andrew Sentance, one of the external members of the Bank of England's monetary policy committee, hinted last night that interest rates may be cut in response to the turmoil in financial markets that triggered the Northern Rock crisis.
