Stewie Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 This article states that In March 2004 Nickell commented that: "the longer house prices continue to rise a lot faster than incomes, the more probable that there would be a relatively sharp correction." So why does he continually vote every month to make mortgages more affordable? Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyShears Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 This article states that So why does he continually vote every month to make mortgages more affordable? Am I missing something? Perhaps because he doesn't care about house prices, and is more interested in the other effects of interest rate cuts? Billy Shears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killer Bunny Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 So why does he continually vote every month to make mortgages more affordable? Am I missing something? I think he was just setting himself up for consultancy post MPC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewie Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 Doesn't really tie in with what he said here "Just put me in charge of the planning system, and I'll bring everyone's house price down" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp1 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 (edited) I think he was just setting himself up for consultancy post MPC. Hence his agent/PR getting his name bandied around much as possible. Im sure he only votes against rest of MPC to get mentioned in the press. The guy's a muppet Edited April 19, 2006 by jp1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
