A cut with no impact
Forbes: UK property sellers will still need to drop prices despite rate cut - Rightmove
'There is still a rump of unsold, overpriced and unaffordable property on the market... and sellers of these properties must not think the drop in interest rates means they do not have to drop their asking prices,' said Miles Shipside, Commercial Director of Rightmove.

If this cut turns sentiment to 'full speed ahead' again we're doomed and might as well leave the country. This carousel has worn me out.

LloydsTSB managed to be pretty sharp on the news; they cut the interest they pay on one account 3 days before the announcement... or maybe they just got the email ready just in case...

As a physicist, TC, I know that if a carousel keeps changing direction there is a lot of change in momentum. I suspect the bearing in the motor will wear out soon
