I think the same comments were being made in Dec 2008, in fact one of your thankers was predicting a major crash 50% by Dec 2009Oh but they didn't expect the govt/BOE to take any action, I suppose.

Crikey, more homes for sale in July than in January. What a shocker!
And HIPs were scrapped to add to the seasonal boost.

There is a reasonable possibility that CGT will rise from its present 28% in the next budget.
28% is very convenient for reaching 40%, with 2 further steps of 6% in successive years.0 -

CGT is calculated by adding the profit subject to CGT, together with gross taxable income in that tax year. Any profit in excess of the basic rate tax threshold is then taxed at the higher rate of CGT of 28%. Anything below at 18%.0
