The problem with markets is that they aren't ideological and they have short memories. The MRP (as measured by the Gilt-BTP spread) is now negative and within historical norms (as measured by the Gilt-Bund spread).
Tell that the home owners who either had their mortgage offers withdrawn, or found the only options as fixed periods expired were significantly more expensive.
I think we are talking past each other. My point was that the MRP only appears to have existed for a short period of time and the lasting damage is thankfully limited (to the groups you mention).
