Fionnuala Earley has stolen the CIA's Time Travel Machine

Ms Earley (a fitting name for a time traveller!) appears to be making liberal use of the CIA's Time Travel Machine:

If you browse the Nationwide's 2008 house price archives, you find this:

September 2008: the average house price is "60% higher in real terms than at the start of the decade".

July 2008: the average house price is "£11,000 higher than three years ago"

May 2008: the average house price is "5% higher than two years ago"

March 2008: the average house price is "11% higher than two years ago and 47% higher than five years ago"

January 2008: the average house price shows "an increase of £7,249 over the last twelve months".

Scary stuff, huh?

Some spam is so weird that I can't bring myself to delete it.

She is now such a joke I'm surprised she is interviewed at all. She was on top form today. Her predictions on house price movements have been proved wrong because she did not predict the slowdown!

Why bother?
