@SnookerBunnyy@MayorofLondon Yes it should, otherwise landlords aren't going to stick around long to make losses. Then lower supply and high demand = higher rents. We've seen the issues caused by lower supply already as a result of the governments tax changes in recent years. Disaster for renters.
@TomRenhard Please stop wasting money on waking watches. There is no evidence that they are effective in any way and they should have been banned a long time ago.
@luhc Not just developers. How about extending this to the insurance sector too and ban those who are profiteering from the #buildingsafetycrisis from operating in the insurance sector. Need to also ban freeholders from owning any more buildings if they’re dragging their feet.
@AskNationwide Let's hope this welcome announcement is one you actually follow this time. There have been too many false promises and you've been completely useless in supporting leaseholders so far. #EndOurCladdingScandal#BuildingSafetyCrisis
@CityAM This is shoddy journalism. Please read up on the #BuildingSafetyCrisis and the Olympic village and you’ll see the failures of this regeneration. Flats with defects that can’t be sold and people being bankrupted to pay for the crimes of those that built them.
@team_greenhalgh@TheSun@harrow_council What about the scam where #Conservatives took £millions in donations from property developers and let them build flammable buildings illegally, which you thought should be fixed by forcing loans on the victims of the crimes. Now that was a scam! #EndOurCladdingScandal
@team_greenhalgh@UKHouseofLords Except it doesn’t. It protects some leaseholders, sometimes. Finally you accept leaseholders are victims but you still think they should pay £10k to £15k for your departments failures?
@EOCS_Official @luhc To put the £75m from Persimmon into perspective, this is the amount they paid their chief executive in 2018. It’s not a lot of money to them so unsure why it’s taken years to get here. Greed before safety. #EndOurCladdingScandal#BuildingSafetyCrisis
@team_greenhalgh@Lees_Martina @thesundaytimes @GOVUK For owners of multiple properties is it £10,000 per property? Or £10,000 total? Your wording is not clear.
@EOCS_Official@HomeBuildersFed@michaelgove The companies have plenty of money - they pay it out to their shareholders in dividends. It is simply a matter of choice for them on where the money goes. What they mean is they won’t be able to pay dividends and fix the buildings at the same time.
@HigginsHomes The independent research company probably didn't speak to the leaseholders I know of, who would be a lot more satisfied if you fixed the cavity barriers that you didn't install correctly.
@JSimpsonjourno@luciemheath It's still not clear if £10k/£15k cap applies per property or per leaseholder. Text states "This will be fixed at no more than £10,000 per leaseholder (or £15,000 in London)" but then contradicts this by giving examples based on per property. @michaelgove@team_greenhalgh
