📺 I spoke on BBC Politics Scotland about the 15 year fight for justice for #MortgagePrisoners
Remarkable that Scot Tory & Labour MPs accept this is a huge scandal - impacting 200,000+ families across the UK - yet their bosses at Westminster continue to turn a blind eye.
HERE WE GO AGAIN ! #2008financialcrash there's been no reprieve for #ukmortgageprisoners in meantime though-homes/marriages/lives/mentalhealth falling apart & still @hmtreasury who created the problem
@JohnGlenUK DO NOTHING! @TheFCA ARE POINTLESS as they only protect the bankers
@APPGMortgage for the 3rd month my @APPGMortgage SVR is rising 2 4.88%. I’ve written 2 @AlunCairns@JohnGlenUK but they fail 2 understand govt created us by selling us 2 unregulated inactive firms. I’ve paid £100k in interest in 13 years & still owe the same full mortgage balance
So, Landmark was owned by @GOVUK after 2008 until they sold for 13bn to Cerebus in 2015, not only did they profit from @mortgageprison the Britsh Government working on behalf of the people, also charged us extortionate rates and profited for 7 years We only want what we are owed
Anyone at anytime can find themselves at threat of repossession, whether that's due to illness or loss of employment. @mortgageprison are calling on @BorisJohnson@Conservatives for a radical overhaul of #SMI it is not-fit-for-purpose, and discriminative.

A milestone reached. I've got 15,000 followers! Delighted that so many people enjoy my musings from the edge of Yorkshire Dales. Sincere thanks to all of my followers for their support, especially those affected by the #LoanCharge#mortgageprisoners and #excludedUK scandals.
@UKLabour@kierstarmer you won't get votes telling us why @BorisJohnson shouldn't be in power, 250,000 UK people ask what will YOU do for @mortgageprison you voted unanimously in favour of #cap so you have the facts. No wishy washy just when, how, what? @Conservatives won't help
Capping the SVR for #mortgageprisoners was ALWAYS the best way to give instant financial relief to families paying extortionate rates. 1 yr since @JohnGlenUK told the @Conservatives MPs to vote against it. Borrowers cld've saved up to £850 pm,instead it goes to the #vulturefunds
Mortgage Prisoners need help desperately but @hmtreasury and @Conservatives would rather see us homeless than rectify their immoral choices. We were not to blame, the fault is not ours. Yet the ones who are responsible make billions off our misery #UKmortgageprisoners#captheSVR
