    Yeah everything up again. So Gordon has really abolished boom and bust then.
    After a minor downturn we're all in the promised land of rising house prices, rising stock markets. Boomed.
    Hard Brexit now!

        Not just stock markets.

        •Largest October rise for 6 years as balance of power continues swing towards new sellers, pushing average Autumn asking prices up by 2.8% (£6,188)

        •95,000 fresh stock, down 36% on 2007, including 22,000 stamp duty exempt sellers looking to cash-in before buyer incentive ends in January

        •Prices now higher than a year ago with London at record high - majority of buyers expecting more rises and only 1 in 10 expecting falls

        •‘Window of opportunity for sellers’ given 2010 election and economic uncertainties facing the next Government and home movers



        Buy buy buy!

          Big sign of a bubble. And where are all these new buyers going to come from, considering the lenders are tightening up restrictions?

            City bonuses - nar can't have that; we'll put a stop to that.
            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.

                    And if house prices stall a bit - the government will print some more money. Buyers can't lose really.
