    This is about a big fund to cover possible repossessions, not the Government getting involved in each individual mortgage.

    So does that mean my monthly payments would be higher based on a 5% mortgage, as well as having to pay back the government each month?

    Sorry, I read on and can see the difference now. I was thinking it was the Equity Loan, but in fact it's the Mortgage Guarantee.

    I kind of get it now (I think)!
