What's Gordon doing for first time buyers? Zilch.
BBC "News": Point-by-point: Budget
The report gleefully notes that house price inflation will "subdue" in 2007, but remain above the economic growth rate. He's raising the IHT threshold though, because ageing property-rich middle England wants their wealth for keeps. I suppose Stalinist Macavity will be on a plane off to the Bahamas by now.

Read the small print and his forward dates and he's not really done anything, his statement on IHT is irrelevant given the time threshold and I would love someone to explain what a zero carbon house is?

If I hear the saying "house price inflation will slow in the later part of the year or next spring or whatever".... I am going to scream. If I had a penny for everytime........
