Cameron Policy coming to fruition and propping up parts of the property market. The Government was all too eager to cut funding and then throw easy loans at the councils to turn them into property developers. We won't give you money to run services but will lend you billions so you can buy offices and buildings.

He can't. He likes to start threads on ...... politics, then claims he's not interested in politics.
He even goes as far as moaning at others that dare to post a political opinion in his thread on ........ politics.

Here's a snapshot of some other threads started by transam, the one that's not interested in politics. I dare say, if we looked back further we'd find one or two more.

Looking at the frequency of his (non-political) posts, I reckon we'll have another of his (non-political) posts on the same subject about the end of the month, then another in February.

Now if you put China and transam into the search engine, be prepared for you PC/phone to be overloaded.
