Sometimes I Despair

Guilty as charged , my apologies, I have had a lot from this resource , going to fill out the contribution page right now.

I have signed up and paid substantially more than this to become a “founder member” – is this not the same thing? I am hoping these funds will be used in the upcoming fight against Clause 24 but havent heard anything further since making the contribution…? I believe that most of the funds for this have been raised through crowdfunding…? An update would be appreciated.

Thanks

Here i am ..Finally ! A Founder member and proud to be . P118 have saved me and my little mortgage well over £100 a month plus a massive refund from West brom and the legal fund .
How could i not offer back a mere tax deductable ? £600 by way of thank you and also to secure my position with this powerful and strategically placed organisation so that we can fight the next battles ?

Thank you again Mark and team

Chris

I have put in the £600 to become a founder member. Although neither the West Brom or B of I debacle affected me directly, and the Clause 24 will only affect me slightly I think it’s really important that I, as a small landlord , have a voice. We are constantly being hounded not only by the press, but now seemingly by the government. Surely £10 a month, or the £600 to become a founder member (both tax deductible) should be seen as a very worthwhile insurance.

I likewise was not affected by the West Brom scam but did contribute £100 to the fighting fund. And I will be only very marginally affected by Clause 24. I love receiving my Property 118 email on a Saturday morning showing all the week’s articles and have a really good read for an hour or so. Surely this is worth £10 a month ? What Mark is doing here is extraordinary and I have just signed up to contribute my £10 a month. Is this really tax deductible though ? If so then the cost to me as a basic rate payer is only £8 a month.
Come on all you fellow readers let’s show our appreciation for what Mark is doing and what he has already achieved – the best landlord website there is !!

Similarly there are around 10,000 letting agents – all of whom should be demonstrating to their landlords that they ‘have their backs’ and embracing collective lobbying.

Hello Ian

We were the first to report clause 24 and have attracted more attention to it than any other media outlet. We have done more lobbying than any other group, we have influenced more media exposure than any other group and we truly believe we have influenced more donations to the campaign than any other group.

If Chris and Steve are granted a Judicial Review we have pledged to support their campaign with the largest financial donation to date.

We are a fledgling action group with minuscule resources and financial reserves in comparison to the landlord association but we are doing more.

Does this answer your question?

It does indeed , and I am happy to contribute, but hope we get more regular updatesregarding the judicial review of clause 24 ..

Ditto Lisa. I don’t trust the politicians and cannot fight them on my own so am happy to be a founder member with leaders who have a record of achievement and getting things done!

I pledged £10 per month to become a member.
What are the benefits of being a founder member? Do you have to contribute £600 per year?
Thank you .
