A national day of protest took place in the US last weekend at various locations, but no mention of it here! At least the people are finally starting to wake up.

Sky Bla, bla, bla, spin, spin, spin. The number of reposessions are up FFS!

You are Mark Thompson and I claim my £5

Thanks LM, I was getting paranoid for a moment!

Fixed

Did Barcelona last week too. We paid £10 for a beer on Las Ramblas!

See the whole interview on the Sky News web site. Worth sitting through just to see the look of contempt Gordon gives Adam at the end! http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/video/Gor...or_Adam_Boulton

BBC News Up by 210,000 in three months. I thought we were recovering?

I feel this thread deserves a bump.

Ending RTB is a good idea, but should have happened years ago. Not to sure about this bit though... 'Your home is at risk if you do not keep up repayments' etc...

Sounds the most likely senario. Off balance sheet accounting by the bank, backed up by the tax payer. Of course, if you or I tried this it would be called fraud! :angry:

Sooooooooooooo, if a group of people wanted to pi$$ off large numbers of parasites that had contributed to pricing them out of home ownership over the last few years, all they would have to do is club together and buy a freehold? Interesting.

My heart bleeds. NOT.

I fear we may get just that.

I have to say I was more than a little annoyed when I heard that the US and the UK would be opposing any curbs to banker bonuses at the G20 meeting. I would be happy to hear ANY argument in favour of this move. Anyone?

Just as well you don't work as a gynocologist then!

Just to add, judging by the comments, people are not convinced.

Sky News Well that's OK then

Only Brown's Bull$h1t Corporation could put a positive spin on -0.7% per quarter! Aren't we borrowing 12% of GDP a year in an effort to prop up the GDP? So that's -3.7% 'growth' per quarter growth then. Epic failure :angry:

All this talk of militancy is nonsense. People cannot afford to strike these days. Remember, it takes two full-time incomes to pay a mortgage now. I know many public servants. None of them live in subsidised council housing. It never ceases to amaze me that some of them still think they are going to get the pensions they have been promised!

Source Where do I even start on this?!

But at least we'll all get more interest on our savings.

I'm loving the response on Sky News... Linky Fight, fight, fight!

No, that was during the denial stage. Now you can no longer deny it's FUBAR, everyone saw it coming a mile off. Apparently.

37 weeks then. I dread to think how much more damage they can doin that amount of time! Anyone care to estimate the extra debt we will incur between now and then?
