They're going mad - they're not even trying to be sensible or responsible any more.

So, if in appears, to avoid reposession, kick up a stink, get sacked, and live off the rest of us, move out and rent out the room, and claim benefits!! Govt sponsored interest holidays, paying for the next buy toilet boom!

I meant to begin that comment saying arrears, not appears! Does anybody know whether Lord Mandelson, Socialist EU minister for Britain (masquerading as an MP) will be drawing up a list of homeowners to be saved? Presumably Tony could do with a hand?!

Let the bankers take over and your children will wake up homeless in the country their forebears conquered, or something like that! Where is the British movement for sound money? To rout the melamine & flouridealert.org? They got hijacked by climate cops.

What is utterly insane about this, is that Gordon Brown is actually tricking people into holding onto, a rapidly depreciating asset, they cannot afford to pay for now, so unless they ? Win the lottery? they probably wont be able to afford in three, six, eighteen months time.
So when your house gets repossessed, 18 months down the line, after the so called 'mortgate holiday' it will be worth probably 50% to 70% less than it is today! [Depending on where you live and what you live in]
Why?
Because Gordon Brown wants to 'appear' to do you a favour so you will vote for him when he calles for a general election.
And it was his reckless and feckless mismanagement that got us here in the first place!
He is more dangerous to the country than Al Qaeda! They could never have done this much damage!
