Re: Brexit thread

No, not just BREXIT, we've had an ageing population and a skills shortage for many years. Sadly the government (including the previous Labour government to some degree) has managed to convince a majority of voters that Mohamed the brain surgeon is after their job!

There's nothing worth going for on fixed rates so I'm having to bite the bullet and go on a standard tracker. I'm hoping rates will eventually drop but in the short term I'm going to be absolutely skint.
