Patients Putting Off Treatment, Warn Dentists
Timil replied to The Masked Tulip's topic in House prices and the economy
10 minutes in the chair nothing needed just a scrape and a polish £53, thank god he wasn't servicing my car. -
Once the daft money from Darn Saff stopped flowing into the Highlands etc there is only one way for prices and that IS freefall, just take the average earnings doubt its even 20K multiply by three and a bit (historical realistic sane lending criteria) and you can see just how stupid house prices around here have got. Only crazy Inflation can save them but I can't for the life of me see where the wage inflation will come from. Add to the that when local goivernment has to turn the machine gun on employment numbers it'll be freefall.

The Civil service and NHS are unfunded schemes the Local government schemes are developing huge shortfalls which current stock market plunges will make all lot worse. Just another Ponzi sheme depending on more entrants for a diminishing return.

I was at a QT and I got to ask a Question. First up you are asked to submit a written topical question someone phones you to check your not a loon, I was asked my opinion on a few current topics then I was told I was to be invited onto the show and tp bring a second question based on topical events from the day the show was on. I was lucky enough to ask the very first question of the TV programme and the show as broadcast was totally unedited recorded from 8.00pm and shown on TV at 10.35pm that night with no editing. It was on slick operation and Dim was ok in the flesh.

Britain Has The Sad Air Of The 1970s This Autumn
Timil replied to AvidFan's topic in House prices and the economy
"Gordon is a Moron" was a hit single in the 70's, if ever a single was screaming out for a re-release surely its time has come. -
I live in Scotland and today the SNP, I believe announced the end of Right to Buy in Scotland, for the last 20 years Councils didn't build many new houses because the figures didn't add up if someone could right to buy a relatively new build, so any new builds basically where left to Housing Associations. My point is this if there is no Right to Buy scheme theres no need for the replacation by Housing associations of all the same staffing etc etc. I'd say quite a few Housing Associations or Councils are going to get savaged.

With all the merger mania I'll put a wee side bet on a merger with David Icke. Oh well, not long to wait.

Crunch Time For Council Workers’ Golden Pensions

The place where I served my time went on all out strike a couple of years after I left for 8 weeks, the management muddled through for 2 months, then settled within 18 months a 400 strong employed work force had crashed to 185, with a lot of jobs out sourced. All the strike achieved was alerting the management to how over staffed they were. Bluffs sometimes get called in a strike and I hope for my children's sake this one does.
