UK Housing and Labour Voter Meltdown

The Market Oracle: UK House Values Have Fallen by 25%, Contributing to Labour Vote Meltdown

A good article linking voting and House Prices.

As we look at history, it seems, IMHO, that Gordo should have called the election in 2007. he would have lost a few seats but retained control of parliament. If he does it later this year he will lose control of the Commons.
