tell me about it i am up in the socialist hell hole of scotland where almost everyone is either on benifits or working for the government in some way.
frankly as i really hope they scrap the banrnet formula soon, its mental listening to people in their 20s talking about getting put on long term sick so they dont need to make the biweekly visit to the dole office and pretend they want a job !!!!!!.
As an ex-pat scot (working (indirectly) for the govt.) I totally agree with you."Mrs. Pench, you've won the car contest, would you like a triumph spitfire or 3000 in cash?" He smiled.
Mrs. Pench took the money. "What will you do with it all? Not that it's any of my business," he giggled.

Hi,
My wife and i are about to buy our first house but we are a little confused about what impact if any Browns decision to build 3 million homes by 2020 will have on the market.
We are a little jittery about buying at a time when house prices are very high and would welcome any thoughts on Browns vision. We understand that irresponsible and ill thought out house building in Spain recently has seen thier market implode.
Cheers

3 million wont be keeping up with demand and anyway
there's no chance that 3 million homes will be built by 2020
house building output will fall once the new building regs come in...not increase as gordon hopes0
