End of the cheap fixed mortgage

Generali

This is why this board is gonna get killed off - we can't have a conversation about something as anodyne as possible future interest movements without it turning into a fight.

It's a bit sad really.

The one I've just read for the last 4 pages on sockpuppets and someone else giving those on benefits a good verbal 'kicking' and bumming about the size of his.. tax bill ??!!.

Am relatively new here and was looking forward to reading a good debate on interest rates etc... I don't even know who most of the people on this thread are, or who they are referring too..

Was pretty dire reading save for a few posts. There are loads more that read these threads than old 'regulars' who have 'history' to bicker over.

I totally agree, and have said as much in other threads. The clique here is so far up it's own behind, it's ridiculous. I wish that I'd just lurked instead of contributing because if you show an interest you're immediately set upon.

No wonder Martin has lost patience, this board sucks.

With respect bendix, you say you have lived in subsidised housing, received benefits through your fathers unemployment and received a state education until you were at least 21 and I guess you received a maintenance grant as well. Yet through your posts I sense utter disregard for those unfortunate to not possess your presumable abilities and unwillingness to pay for those less fortunate (although you now appear to deny this).
I assume you are a legal bod (after applying some intellectual curiosity ) your pm to LIR is a bit of a clue. Apologies if any assumptions I have made are incorrect.
BTW commiserations over your dad.

Steve, there are two main economic phases in a person's life. Your childhood and adolescence when, unfortunately, you can't really impact your economic environment, and your maturity - when you can.

I apologise for bendix's childhood when he accepted (tacitly) state help.

It won't happen again.

Now, I'm prepared to let you have the last word. I know it's important to you. After that, let's take it private, ok?
