And in Ireland today:

There are a few interesting comments about the ‘nanny state.’ It seems pretty incredible that you have to prove legally you aim to sell in order to get vacant possession of your own property.

Hello Ian
I have responded to your submissions, please check your spam/junk folders.
I am not aware of any strategies where an LLP could be advantageous.

I have just begun my first submission to the Lords Committee on the Economics of the Housing Market:
‘Submission on the issue of how the Government can encourage a long term rental culture.’
This one is going to be easy-peasy as I am stealing the information Mark/Neil has provided today on the DPS’ findings that 80% of tenants don’t want long term tenancies. So, as usual the theoretical premises of Parliament’s aims are all wrong.
Bloody hell – it just shows they don’t know their arse from their elbow – ‘let’s work out how we can achieve something that the vast majority of the target group we hope to help doesn’t actually want.’

Note what Brandon Lewis says about institutional investment in the PRS.

I remain convinced that the Government wants to rid the sector of individual landlords to make way for the institutions.
Interestingly he recognises that introducing regulatory burdens pushes up costs and rents. No mention of tax changes pushing up costs and rents.

Yes and when the institutions control the market watch the rents rise.
I also think they want to get rid of social housing .

See correspondence received today from Karen Buck MP. The letter is addressed to Karen from David Gauke (Financial Sec to the Treasury) in response to a letter we sent to Karen. Basically the treasury are not budging! and don’t give a damn how this impacts anyone!
