Ridiculous isn't it? But it's been around for a while this idea and for "Les presidentielles" Macron has generously decided to abolish the wealth tax if elected. It will be replaced by an annual tax when you finish paying your mortgage. Only in France!

I really don't think they have thought it through as yet. It must be income and house value related, and the chance of Macron being elected are pretty slim. Le Pen is more popular, but I still think it will be Juppé now that Fillon has shot himself in the foot and retired hurt. Won't repay the €800,000 he has been paying his wife as an aide though! In brief, will probably never happen, but I've asked my bank manager for a €5,000 loan against the house if needs be. Then I'll never repay the mortgage in my lifetime;)
