Tory MPs threaten to rebel against government over leasehold reform trib.al/a55576d

Who do I vote for if I want the 'scrap leasehold and let the people creaming money from the wholy scammy effing thing drown in their own tears' option?

🚨 We first warned govt about these impending enormous costs over 2 years ago.

❌ Unfortunately, the Building Safety Act means that innocent leaseholders are being forced to pay huge sums to put right decades of wrongdoing by the state and industry.

Important piece in the The Telegraph tonight. End Our Cladding Scandal research finds leaseholders are paying an additional £600 in service charges because of the Building Safety Regulator. This must be a wake up call for those urging a Regulator for managing agents. telegraph.co.uk/money/property…

Tory minister in the Lords confirms that the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill won't come into effect until 2025/26.

That is painfully slow and suggests that despite taking years to introduce this unambitious legislation the groundwork has not been done.

'The building safety crisis has trapped 700,000 people in dangerous homes and left almost three million owners with flats they cannot sell. Almost all are properties built or refurbished since 2000'

🚨Over 15,000 made homeless.

❗The majority of unsafe buildings across the country still don’t have plans in place to fix all issues.

As the arguments over who pays rage on, the ramping up of decants looks set to increase.

❌ @MichaelGove Lee Rowley victims are STILL paying for this scandal.

Well this took me a few months to investigate: since Grenfell, 15,210 residents have been forced to move out of dangerous flats across Britain, analysis of 7 years’ local media reports found thetimes.co.uk/article/forced…

This is the scale of the building safety scandal, which seems to have been all but forgotten

❗Shared owners living in a London block of flats have been told they must pay an extra £5,000 a year for their service charge due to flammable cladding.

💸 The monthly charge for a shared ownership flat 'has trebled from £205 to £614.29'

🚨 This is unsustainable @MichaelGove

One of the worst things about human life is that every 18 months you have to call Sky and pretend that you're going to leave them until they find a magical offer which halves your bill which apparently didn't exist when you first rang

🗨️'L&Q - who are my head lease, hadn't mentioned anything about cladding or anything when I was purchasing the flat'

London flat owners: are you facing huge service charge increases? Are you feeling trapped in the leasehold system? I'd love to have a chat - get in touch by email [email protected] or send me a DM, thank you!

Not sure how this has happened. Outside cat is ours. Inside cat is not.

It's in no way concerning that a former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom needed three attempts to successfully hold up the cover of a book:

Today I recieved a service charge demand for £6200

My service charge doubled due to costs involved in registering our building to the Building Safety Regulator in accordance with BSA 2022

Thanks Michael Gove Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities I can no longer afford to live in my home 👏

Labour has dropped its pledge to abolish leasehold within the first 100 days of government if it wins the general election trib.al/v1v7vyO

Matthew Pennycook MP Our management company have told us for years that the insurance is sky high cause of the cladding only to now say well it won’t go back down. They self insure so profit off our high costs. Same with the electricity. It’s all a scam to keep costs high for their benefit

Matthew Pennycook MP We all know what needs to happen, we need leasehold abolished. Labour said they would abolish leasehold within 100 days if they get elected. Will this pledge be in the manifesto for the upcoming election?

My monthly rent is £2000. Yours was £26 and a hobnob.
