UK Retail Declines Over Christmas
dkujsbap replied to Big Orange's topic in House prices and the economy
Westfield charge around £5 an hour to park yet people go there and in Orford Road, Walthamstow business is flourishing where motor vehicles have been banned outright. Councils have a tough job keeping streets clean when the citizens spit, drop cig ends, gum and litter everywhere Not everything is dependent on the car, in fact if the lazy British didn't rely on the car they'd have about £5k more in disposible income. It's because the economy is ******ed and people are ******ed. People only visit out of town retail parks for shopping these days. If you want a coffee or to put a fiver on the nags, you go to the "council bricks and mortar" High Street. -
Explain how reduced SDLT increases house prices
dkujsbap replied to Drummer's topic in House prices and the economy
McDonnell speaking about house building and SDLT on BBC Breakfast: WE wouldn't just be able to make them settle, "we may even be able to reduce house prices". Methods flawed but promising language -
Has anyone changed their mind on rate rise this week ?
dkujsbap replied to TheCountOfNowhere's topic in Anecdotals
Voted no. I am a firm believer in the betting markets showing true probability and from memory they have been pretty accurate since I've been tracking the interest rate markets. So I should vote yes, right? I (just) voted no because I've read all the talk before. -
Robert Peston's: Tory Party Conference 2017
dkujsbap replied to oatbake's topic in House prices and the economy
Didn't bother asking anyone "are house prices too high" then. -
Yeah I am slowly taking everything out of p2p. I can see p2p being very viable in the future, and has been in the past. Concerning right now though.

Jonathan Davis : Interest Rate rise
dkujsbap replied to TheCountOfNowhere's topic in House prices and the economy
Incidentally, betfair exchange is currently running at odds-on that the next MPC decision will be a rate rise. Not that that signals much of course, but last time I looked it was 1.03 for no change. Brexit was around 1.10 though so take it all with a pinch of salt. -

Labour plan to crash house prices...
dkujsbap replied to whitemice's topic in House prices and the economy
I'm looking at the best rated comments and none of them seem to like this, or the thought of an HPC? -
I appreciate that kids and spouse may have had an effect but why not do like everyone else and go to the pub while things calmed down? People and taverns are literally the two things that make London worth it. Went for a few beers AND got a seat tonight!

Not worth ruining friendships over this. Just like Brexit, Benefits, Cycling, Religion and other divisive topics, keep it on here. In the last year, most of my friends have FTbought. I don't agree with it and selfishly I need them to get burned so that I don't. But I'm not going to get into a discussion about it because what good is it going to do? I'm sure as shit not going to brag if prices do take a hit, although maybe I'm lucky in that my best friends don't really talk about prices which is refreshing. At best, you'll work yourself up trying to reason with someone whose beliefs are different to yours (and in fairness, more correct given how things have played out). At worse, you'll lose a mate.
