Labour pledges to renationalise railways
winkie replied to yodigo's topic in House prices and the economy
That statement is a bit obscure......so many variables........Don't care how they sort it, it needs sorting one way or another...... embarrassing, look how much wasted on over budget, over time and eventually scrapped HS2.......why can't we get anything to do with infrastructure right?...... dangerous smart roads undoing at great expense, water a mess, even broadband/wifi very patchy, can't even build the homes that are needed, targets cancelled, all talk no action......going backwards. -
Britain FAR worse than France...........

Already cost too high, thousands have stoped using trains......they in effect no longer exist.......when Europe is reducing fares and improving services we are not only increasing fares, the service is such hard work best not to go there. -

Don't we basically own them now anyway.......how much are tax payers or public money subsidising these so called 'private' businesses at the moment......private gains, public pays, same as it ever was. -

Just get used to paying what you are paying.....give or take 1%, money is made on the margin....do you want another GFC to bring in ultra low interest rates emergency measures again?......careful what is wished for. -
What if mortgage rates fell to 1 or 2%
winkie replied to Pmax2020's topic in House prices and the economy
For a couple of thousand pounds can buy a luxury secondhand car, all mod cons, aircon, cruse control, comfortable ride, leather seats, very safe, engine if looked after easy go around the clock twice.......if dismantled the car the tyres and parts would be worth more.......same for wooly jumpers, the jumper costs next to nothing, unwind the wool, the wool as balls costs more. -

If rates dropped there would be more of a demand for debt.......doesn't necessarily mean the supply would be forthcoming......best thing to do if got debt and rates fall is to repay it as quickly as possible £1 of debt repaid will mean less overall debt/interest will have to eventually repay.......then every £1 is your own.......reduce interest rates, reduce your term to become 100% debt free quicker.......then who needs a BTL?
