eek Report post Posted November 28, 2005 (edited) Like the way he sneaked that into his speech as he talked about tackling inflation... How have they 'moderated' the market, then? We screwed up by allowing prices to become unsubstainable. We are now trying to keep this position because someone has explained to me and my future plans what the results of a house price crash will be (oh and Mr Blair is not leaving rapidly enough for me to escape, the b****d). Unfortunately that person failed to explain that it is the price rises before the crash that cause the crash that will cause the recession but hey, you can't have everything.

BuyingBear Report post Posted November 28, 2005 You can watch the CBI conference, lots of questions to Brown about public pensions and gas prices... Blair is going to address them tomorrow on nuclear. Hrm, started snowing here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
