Switching to HSBC variable or a terrible idea?

Would you do it to save fees?

Situation: HSBC 5 year fixed to end june 2013. Not a good deal!
Will have Paid: 139,000 of 322, 000 (100k in original deposit, 40k in repayments)
Current payments: £1375 a month, interest and repayment
Mortgage left in June 2014: 183,000
Current value of property: 600,000, bought in 2006
Current financial situation: small business owner for 1.2 years, loew income, own 30% share in another property worth 1.5 million

Most of above is off the top of my head but gives an idea.
What would you do? Do I need a broker?
