Remember the Government's mortgage scheme?


This was the one which was to help hard-pressed families avoid re-possession of their home. It was announced with great fanfare by Gordon Brown some weeks ago. Well, as you will see from the weblink below, just six families have benefited in the whole country!

This is yet another example of the Government making policy on the hoof and just trying to get favourable newspaper headlines, without doing anything of substance.

It explains why their unpopularity has reached record levels. Meanwhile, record re-possessions continue and unemployment rises above 2.1 million.

You can read the weblink article about this in The Guardian, HERE.
