Which you would think would be good for first time buyers, but the artical also manages to put the frighteners on them as well.

The salient word in that bit of fear stoking is 'COULD'....which really means he hasn't got any idea what it would do to house prices.
If we stay there will be no houses to buy anyway...they will be taken up by migrants.......there won't be schhol places because the migrants tend to have larger families.
I have neither heard nor seen anything which will stop me from voting to leave.

Whilst that would happen if that were the case, it would also be much easier for the young to get a mortgage? guess he forgot to add that?:rolleyes:

As I said he even attempts to put the frighteners on that theory.

Mr Osborne’s report will also warn that first-time buyers would also be hit because leaving the EU would cause mortgage interest rates to rise sharply.

Yes.....that is the theory.......but as I said, staying in poses problems which are just as thorny and wide reaching.......and these things are just conjecture, assumptions, suppositions.....all euphemisms for guesswork.

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
Have you seen the list of actors who are all advising us that it would be so much better for us to remain.......... the thing that they do not realise is that we know that if we stay the strictures and difficulties that this poses would hardly affect them...they have access to private health care...not for them the wait in A&E to see a doctor...or a ten day wait to see a GP. They can send their offspring to private schools and they will not rub shoulders with roma children, or turks or albanians,slovenians....(OK they aren't in yet...but they are hoping to be).
They will not be affected when wages are forced down still further......so why should we listen to them? What real influence do they have on our lives...if Benedict Cumberbatch, or Keira Knightley disappeared from my screen tomorrow it would not affect me one jot.

Another little aside...i read somewhere that David Cameron is considering giving peerages to those Loyal tory MP's who support his remain campaign...so how does that strike you?
Bribery, corruption or just plain running scared. We all know the polls are saying that the remain have the lead...but remember the last election and the Scottish Referendum...the polls were of very little value because they were just wrong.(Please let them be wrong in a major way this time - is all I ask)

Please stop using big words like "Salient", I have had to dig out the dictionary in order to look it up; I only went to Woodnook, as you know.;););) Your's Taddy

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
 
I didn't think 'salient' was a big word.
I only went to Woodnook too.....look at it as a learning curve Taddy. :)

Salient,(say-li-ent),adjective. projecting,prominent, a projecting part, sounds rather rude to me.:):):)
