You are only a sock-puupet insofar as you are the public face of a faceless organisation trying to peddle your won particular brand of propaganda to serve your own interests.
One day you will realise you are just a pawn.
when you actually become open-minded and a real person as opposed to the one-trick pony spouting polemic all day long you may be treated more like a real MSEr.0 -

YES! I want FTB's to get ripped off because it suits my crash agenda!To be honest I am quite happy for interest rates to rise and let prices correct to where they should be.
Yes I am aware I will be ripped off on my mortgage for a good few years, but if interest rates are high then my it can only come down and reduce my payments, right now the only way is up.Have my first business premises (+4th business) 01/11/2017

Missed the point there.
The thread is about FTB's being ripped off and charged more for mortgage interest just becasue they don't have an absurdly high 25% deposit.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

YES! I want FTB's to get ripped off because it suits my crash agenda!Well its my choice to either stop saving at 10% or 25%, personally I am looking at 15% as it currently offers a lot better deals than 10% without taking to long to save.Have my first business premises (+4th business) 01/11/2017
