To be backed by Tory party donors when borrowers fall into arrears and/or negative equity!!. Can’t see lenders going for this. Fair rents are a better idea so people can afford a roof over their heads a fundamental human right.

As someone hoping to own a home, making mortgages cheaper is nice, but all BorisJohnson is doing is increasing demand for housing while keeping supply the same. This will only raise house prices beyond there current highest. 10DowningStreet needs to build more homes!

BoO wants generation ‘buy, buy, buy’ whilst attacking them for wanting to study, work and getting on with their lives

What we need right now is the return to the practices that led to 2008 crash. Winner winner chlorinated chicken dinner.

This is not the best use of taxpayers money, this is for the greedy big builders. Bank rates must go up to end this ridiculous housing bubble. Spend on major projects and affordable housing, not watching existing assets increase at ridiculous rates. Young with £100,000’s of debt!

No good if they don’t have a job!🙄

Oh look, we're on a one-way track back to 2008 🤦🏻‍♀️

Will banks want to give such risky loans? Surely they can't be forced to.

This week's top story - & every week's top story for the foreseeable future - should be about how many people are dying because of the government's fatal incompetence!

Excellent timing. Just as he’s presiding over a populace that’s losing their jobs faster than, well, just about anything.👏🏼👏🏼

I can only just afford the rent where I live now, and even that's a shared effort. Fuck this and give the people who ACTUALLY run this country the chance to survive first!
