Well that increase clearly shows the impact of the expenses scandal.

David Boothroyd

All this demonstrates is the pathetic approach of Tory bloggers. No scheme is going to provide instant help, especially not one working in this area where complex financial negotiations are needed.

The Minister actually pointed out that 200 households had been helped under the Mortgage Rescue Scheme, and a further 295 were being assessed. The figure of 6 refers to the very final stage of a very long process.

Don't you think Government should be helping people who face repossession? Do you have any ways of speeding it up? No, you just want to jibe. Not a very adult way of looking at people in trouble.

Dont worry, BOOTHROYD will be along to defend it.!

Lets not forget the additional 20000 new homes. LOL

Neil McEvoy

David Boothroyd, it would be more efficient to carpet bomb major cities with newly printed tenners.

The weird thing is that building 20,000 new homes really WOULD be borrowing to invest, unlike the diversity co-ordinators and the like

Drop the Mortgage Assistance Scheme. A much better use of limited reserves would be to steal a Tory eye catching initiative - introduce a Cones Hotline. Join the campaign now. What do we want? A Cones Hotline! When do we want it? Now!

Wight Tory

Increased by 300%, that will be the line at PMQ's tomorrow I suppose

"Don't you think Government should be helping people who face repossession? Do you have any ways of speeding it up? No, you just want to jibe. Not a very adult way of looking at people in trouble."

Sure, if this is really what the government should be doing, but it should be being done properly.

I'm afraid you must have been to the New Labour School of Misrepresentation. You're saying "Isn't this a good thing. How can you be so heartless as to be against it?", when the point being made isn't actually anything about whether or not it's a good thing, but about Labour's crowing about the effectiveness of THEIR scheme, which has so far helped 6 families in a nation of 60 million people.

Do you see this? You're not engaging in the cut and thrust of political banter. You're misrepresenting the charge being made against you, almost certainly deliberate. But I suppose, at the bottom of it all, the sad truth is that new Labour was never any more than a bag of wind that depended on a surrounding tissue of untruths and deceptions to keep it inflated.

Got a puncture repair kit?

If you want some comedy allow this link to Gove kicking Balls in his response, something like that anyway.

Gove responds to Balls education statement today in Parliament:

Gove Gives Balls a Dose

Mr Cod

Boris has alreadt implemented a cones hotline for London. Perhaps he could sell it to other cities and the Highways Agency?

Cb.

And here's another charming offensive by the Balls Brothers: http://conservativehome.blogs.com/centreright/2009/06/how-not-to-be-prime-ministerial-on-a-pm-visit.html

Julianlzb87 - certainly sounds like it. What a plum.

"Don't you think Government should be helping people who face repossession?"

No I do not; if sub-prime minds decide to borrow silly amounts of money, much more than they could ever afford, then let them pay the price and learn the lesson.

Question; are you the Boothroyd
who is the author of "United Kingdom Election Results and Politico's Guide to The History of British Political Parties, a guide to British elections since 1832"?

Ian W

No, Wight Tory, it has increased by 200% not 300%. You are not Ed Balls in disguise, are you ;-)

Possibly out of date but pretty funny. Way to miss the point David- how stupid do you think we all are?

Also, Neil, will CH be implementing this 'money by air' system soon? Please get me a heads up :-)

Scot Richards

Here - directly quoted from Wikipedia - is a prime example of a Labour Troll dissembling for Balls:

'A Labour councillor for London's City of Westminster resigned from Wikipedia's supreme court at the weekend, after admitting he gained election to the site's ruling body using a false name.

David Boothroyd - councillor for Westminster's Westbourne ward - was elected to Wikipedia's Arbitration Committee in December 2007 under the name Sam Blacketer and has edited the overly-egalitarian online encyclopedia under at least three other names.'

Indeed. This IS the best they can do. Thieves, Liars and Cheats all. lefties should stay away from the Internet - it's not for you as your lies will all be found out.

ps; Did I really say 'dissembling for Balls'?

"No I do not; if sub-prime minds decide to borrow silly amounts of money, much more than they could ever afford, then let them pay the price and learn the lesson."

It is surely every UK resident's right to borrow other people's money to make a bet on the property market, and should they win, keep the profit, whilst having the surety of being bailed out if the bet goes wrong. Ask any flipping MP.
