Overseas buyers - the pound has dropped so much that assets in the UK look cheap externally, but we can't have all those nasty foreigners with their dodgy money buying everything. we'll put a stop to that.
Mmmmmmmm, prospects don't look good.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
