How does he intend to do that?

Once the current crises sorts itself out I will like to see :-
1. mortgages of more than 90% made illegal - to fall by 1% a year until 75%reached
2. mortgage payments targeted as part of inflation that BofE have to monitor(as seperate to house prices/loan outstanding).

He'll invite AtW to join a special Government think tank. Problem solved.

I wish he'd ban tracksuit selling. Imagine how much stick those poor athletes will get in 2012 when we've replaced fox hunting with chav hunting.

It'll be safer doing the tibetan leg of the 2008 torch relay, which I assume is going to be televised on Sky Sports alongside cage fighting and squirrel buffing.
