As usual Anne you are ahead of the game.

I recommend using bank assets to bring all threatened

repossessions into social housing: no more forced repossessions.

Martin,great does this mean the banks then become landlords and thus actually have to manage some ‘real’ estate and be responsible

for some real management of real stock. I like the muslim concept of banks being joint shareholders in whatever enterprise they lend money for. The

recipient of the money simply gains increasing share of the enterprise as repayments are made.
Without such responsibilities the banks remain

mere usurers. I dont believe the proping up the banks is doing other then restoring the system (if it works) that gave us the problem. At least the

British now have a legal share in the banks so they if the banks are rejuvenated they too recive a dividend. As I see it much of the prop up money

is a straight steal from the public purse.
