Petition Provide financial support for full-time workers with high-interest mortgages
I would like the Government to provide more financial support for full-time workers with high-interest mortgages, many of whom are struggling with debts. Some people's mortgage payments have doubled since 2023, and we feel our standard of living has gone from comfortable to impossible.
More details
I work in the construction industry and since mortgage rates have gone up, I feel the industry has suffered. Some people are losing jobs and businesses because many people have stopped building or selling houses. Many cannot afford to buy a house with the current mortgage rates. Some people who work full time are struggling as much as those who get benefits, and I think the Government should provide more support to full-time workers.
