I'm sure if the government were ever to release these figures this graph would have a huge horizontal stretch...ǝןqqıʍComment

Graph is accurate, compared to last October it's even worse.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment

Isn't it showing %age change rather than actual prices?
So in Feb 2007 houses were going up at 10% a year, and now they are going down at 4-5% a year.
It''l take a while before those years of 10%+ growth are wiped out..."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

But the "pundits" were predicting house prices would not fall, but would stop rising, i.e. a soft landing.
Yes, they need to fall for about 5 years to become affordable, which is I suspect what they are going to do.
