I think you will find that the banks are still getting their money. The buyers would have to pay rent, its just a re-worded form of interest payment. No-one in this world gets anything for free, at least not from banks.
Oh and you spelt outrageous wrong, I think that is what Cobra was referring to.

BTW.... You are English if you are a member of the English Race just like you are Japanese if you are a member of the Japanese Race... sorry if that offends people but I am just fed up with people being racists against English People!!!!
I'm sick of being told I am a racists just for being proud of my race. I'm not against any other race I'm just against injustice full stop!!!
Most people do not understand the difference between English and British..
If you are an immigrant and live in England that does not make you an English person... it makes you British.
It's that simple...

couldn't that be construed as discrimination? only available if you are a Muslim, sounds like a way to gain some converts. does the uk have laws against discrimination? if so i think it should be applied on something like this if they refuse non-Muslims a loan. i believe that the Jewish laws prohibit interest (at least for jews) as well. but i have never heard of them setting up something like this.

I really don't know what on earth your trying to say here. You say people dont understand the difference between being English and British, and you don't seem to have much of an idea yourself. At least you're not expressing it very well. Are you saying that an immigrant who now holds a British passport, cant be proud to be English? Proud to be living here and adding to the betterment of our society? Why ever not? And if your born here to immigrant parents, are you not allowed to be English too?

Being English does not make you C of E, and being English is not a race, as is being a Muslim is not, we are all members of the human race.
I think you are mixing race with creed, culture and or faith, and the result is prejudice. This is quite clearly seen in your lack of knowledge regarding the ability of someone to be English and of a different faith to C of E.
Kerb your anger before posting this way you can cloak your ignorance.
p.s I noticed your name can be pronounced Neo Nhaze, was this a deliberate ploy of yours?

As I said it is just re-wording, so it is not seen as a loan. The banks will still be making the same amount of money, fairness is not even an issue.
Personally I think this "news" is a none issue.

Actually you are wrong there is an English race and the nationality is British.
If you are born here to an immigrant family then you are a 2nd generation immigrant.
The inhabitants of England are the English
If my family moved to Japan and I was born there do you think I would be Japanese??? Nope of course not.
Actually the True English Race are those that can trace their Family Tree back to the Anglo-Saxons.
Since the term "English" explicitly refers to peoples who arrived on the island of Great Britain relatively recently, it is anachronistic to talk of England's prehistory or ancient history which, though rich and interesting, are properly dealt with as part of the history of the island of Great Britain as a whole.

Lloyds TSB states that they will pay 90% that means the deposit on a Muslim loan is just 10% that means it is physically easier for a Muslim to get a mortgage as they are more able to get the deposit together than anyone else.

You are wrong. People living in England are English

Wrong.

Yes you would be. The world does not classify citizens by "pure breed" (yuck, I hate that term), because such a thing does not exist anymore.

The term England comes from the Angles, Germanic settlers.

Have a read here: en.wikipedia.org...
ANyway, to the point, there is no preference for Muslims in buying a house. Like I said, go to the bank.
