Yes please, perhaps Ant and Richard would agree to help?
Recruiting signatories is only a small part of this campaign, recruiting more helpers will be the key to success.
The Government has more power than any one of us but every one of us working together has more power than the Government.

John, DG is also my MP whom I have sent two emails to over last few days (including asking for a response to the questions that BTL Investor Scotland posed).
Ps Mark: sorry to be a real bore, but please can you ask your web guys how I can unsubscribe from the emails copies for each post. I’ve tried…
Not sure if you’ve considered using vbulletin . com type user friendly forum software?

Maybe we could all talk to our LHA tenants so they understand the reasons and then issue section 21’s to them all so thousands of them flood their local housing offices in a ‘panic’ that would soon be fed back to government level so they could see that impact potentially ‘overnight’. I know we’d need to follow through with N52B if we were actually going to evict, but the act of issuing the section 21’s in unison could have a big impact on the panic factor and maybe make them think twice!

Hi Mark.
I’ve just sent you the petition to sign (I was too excited to wait until 3pm). It will be up and running once it has 5 signatures, I believe.
Thanks

I’ve just been through the rest of the mail. Mr Vara’s envelope had House of Commons emblazoned on the front. Another letter that I received had a very bland envelope but on the back was ’10 Downing Street’.
Mr Cameron’s Correspondence Officer has forwarded my letter to the Department for Communities and Local Government. I’ve already written to them so hopefully Brandon Lewis might get to see one of the copies.

I have written to my MP and have included some examples of figures from Mark Alexander.
Is this the petition against the Summer budget?

There is an unsubscribe link at the bottom of each comment notification email.
You will be subscribed again next time you comment so you will need to unsubscribe again next time you receive another comment notification.
It is far from ideal but it is the best we can do given our budgets.
It would not be practical to completely re-write the functionality of Property118 with alternative software given that nearly £1 million has been invested to get the website to where it is now.
I accept that other software platform have some advantages but they also have many disadvantages too.
We will continue to make improvements as budget allow – note that we are funded by donations.
