Don't worry about it - the same thing happened to me the first time I challenged him on one of his muddles - his fallback position is to suggest you're the re-incarnation of a previously-banned poster.

Ahhh, thanks for this, it explains a few remarks from that chap and another poster.

Reno, it's slowly dawning on me that it appears you could well be MrRee and MrPricklepants and all the other names.

Even so, I've no idea how I've caused offence? I checked the forum rules and there is nothing in there about not being allowed to question whether it's worth discussing certain subjects when the debaters are so entrenched in their views that the discourse is circular and therefore pointless?

Did you check the forum rules about multiple user ID's?

Oooh, Deputy Sheriff Shorty Earp is getting involved now. Doesn't look good for Offgrid.

Ahhh, that also explains a few things. I saw this post earlier in the thread and wondered why michaels was talking to graham (devon?) when replying to shortchanged's initial post:

So is this to be dismissed by some on here that feel that quite small rate rises will not be a problem for many householders in the UK.

Maybe the BoE is also starting to realise and see the risk of borrowing large amounts on low interest rates and the potential future risk of this.

Common sense really.

Great news. With the economy so sensitve to interest rate increases there will be no need for large increase to damp down on demand and control any resurgence of inflation - thus low and stable interest rates can be maintained long term leading to a benign climate for business investment and long term productivity and hence real GDP increases. :T

Graham would you prefer if the economy was very insensitive to interest rates so that large increase were required to impact on activity and inflation thus leading to much more 'stop-go' type policies which are likely to result in low investment and less long term growth?

Is it well known that Graham Devon and shortchanged are the same person? I thought this was against the rules - or are some people above the rules?

Maybe now, but you've already been PPR'd several times under different user names.

Mr._Pricklepants

We can now safely assume this question will not be answered?

Do you believe that interest rates in the Eurozone, US, Canada and other developed countries were lowered to prop up UK house values?

I have to give it to you both, shorty and devon, you're brilliant muddlers.
