Christmas Tree 4542 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 so you're still pinning this all on Labour? Hilarious I haven't said that in any of these posts.

Dr Gloom 21566 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Whose job was it in the 2000's to regulate the banks so that mortgages could not be sold to people without income? You do know we're talking about US subprime mortgages, right? Are you honestly saying that was Labour's fault? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 20618 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 You do know we're talking about US subprime mortgages, right? Are you honestly saying that was Labour's fault? Of course it was Labour's fault they failed to regulate the US housing market, don't you know that? Even by CT's standards he's being unintentionally hilarious. Really think admin should think about a name change at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21566 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Ok ok, if you still really want me to answer the question, you could lay some blame with George W Bush, you massive spaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5131 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Labour could have regulated the banks better. The Tories were in agreement, if I recall correctly, with Labour strategy. So that's the whole UK government at fault there, not just Labour. And as everyone has said, the whole fucking thing started in the US. But look, we've argued this before. I know we have because this argument is central to my 'New Labour abandoned us when they agreed with the Tory rhetoric that CT is now spouting' complaint.

Dr Gloom 21566 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) It's ok, run along chicken little, Rayvins admitted guilt on your behalf.Rayvin admitted guilt on my behalf - what does that even mean? CT, you alluded that the Labour government was somehow responsible for regulating the sale of US subprime mortgages that sparked off the crisis, you massive moron. Rayvin supported the point I already made about the era of light touch regulation. This created the environment that allowed the banks to miss-sell the mortgage backed securities that were full of these junk mortgages that exacerbated the problem. do you deny that Thatcher and Regan created this environment? Blair kept it going but to suggest Labour was somehow the architect of the global financial crisis is clearly nonsense.

Rayvin 5131 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 ... Have I been drafted into CT's side here? I think the point I was making is the same as the above two posts, apologies if I wasn't very clear though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven 0 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Sure they didn't realise how big the crash would be, Just encapsulates everything everyone says about you. One of the stupidest things you've ever said and that's saying something. I see you go on to argue that everyone knew there would be a crash. I actually was thinking about you today when discussing the distance between perception and reality and how much it is possible to shift that perception. What i didnt say was 'when you're dealing with idiots'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
