therefore, this proposal is good

FFS this government has no grasp of basic economics. What next?
<conspiracy theory>
I think they want us to be part of the public sector, where we can enjoy our tax-payer subsidised canteens and go home to our tax-payer subsidised housing paid for with tax-payer subsided loans. If I wanted to live in France I would.
</conspiracy theory>
I'm leaving for Oz at the end of the year anyway

Alistair Darling is drawing up a series of radical proposals to revive Britain's beleaguered housing market as new figures show soaring numbers of homes being repossessed.
Among the measures being considered by the Chancellor are:
*A plan to reintroduce income support for mortgage interest payments for homeowners who lose their jobs.
*Suspending stamp duty so buyers only pay the tax after several years in their new home, or perhaps not until they sell the property.
*Creating a new, tax-free fund to help first-time buyers raise the deposit they need to get on the housing ladder.
------------------------------
all aboard, the gravy train is running again
Milan.
1. pushing up the price and therefore giving the money straight to the sellers.
2. helping some people on to the housing ladder at the direct cost of pushing some others off it.

The rest of the entire World even socialist Europe wouldn't do that, they would, and do make interest payments tax deductable.
And then the government giving people money to buy property they can't afford? Is this for real? They are truly insane.
I'd recommend sending a letter (or starting a petition) but you'll end up with the usual "economy growing, Government looking at various proposals" blather.

Vote grabbing if you ask me. Perhaps he should also draw up proposals for those of us who have lost money on the markets in our "pensions".

Hooray for Labour, saviour of the people. Free houses for the poor and lazy.
Now, just who is going to foot the tax bill for all these "initiatives" I wonder. Bend over......
