    Indeed many were high LTV and interest only.

    2008 was not so long ago really.

    10 years is long enough to have started reducing the debt owed, albeit slowly. For the majority of people there's a choice as to how they prioritise where they spend their money.

    Did they include self declaration income mortgages as well?
    No. NR always requested proof of income.

    Should the taxpayer be sued for saving people's homes after they took out so much debt? No
