The Alliance is Launched
Let me Preface this by thanking Property118, Mark and Neil on behalf of all our members. Without Property118, it would not have been possible.
The New Landlords Alliance, against all the odds has been launched. We were told that it would not be possible, that we would not get the numbers. Wrong , we have arrived.
A huge word of thanks to every body who pledged. If you have not paid yet, please log on and pay online. We are contacting every single pledge personally. It is a massive task, please bear with us. We wanted to do it this way to show our appreciation to every single person who pledged. We value each and every member.
To our detractors and to Shelter, we say this. We will not tolerate the language of hate, we will not listen to any charity or organisation that label all landlords as criminals.
Because of our success and our membership, we will shortly launch in London. Venue to be announced.
I now make another appeal. To those who have not yet joined. Please join us. We need you and you now know, that we are a fighting force. Help us become the Largest Landlord organisation in the country.
Time to go for a new approach. We are already advising Croydon landlords to ditch the Council. Why should we house their tenants, as they call for S21 to be scrapped. No more lying down. They attack us, we make them pay.
Shelter assist delinquents who default on rent, to stay in our properties. Fine we educate the public on what this organisation really stands for. We will have a lot more to say about Shelter and have fun saying it. Shelter might not find it quite so easy raising all that cash to house nobody.
Licensing, S24 all make for a hostile environment. The new Homes fitness for habitation bill, should not worry us in the least. Having said that Councils who impose the burden of their rotten licensing schemes, might be worried now that Council tenants can sue them.
Once again, thank you to all who have joined and to those who have pledged but not joined yet, please do so as soon as possible.

Thank you everybody. I dont want to have a monopoly on the name. Perhaps we could rebrand in the future. The priority was getting the show on tbe road. Shelter are a disgrace and we will not let up until our concerns are fully addressed. Our campaign section on the site will have news of campaign tactics. In the Meantime M and S are struggling. Would every landlord in the country please email the chief exec and explain that we will boycott their stores until they end their relationship with Shelter. Everybody please do not set foot or spend one penny in M and S. Lets start this now. Tell family and friends to abandon M and S.

Same should apply to B&Q, they have Shelter collection boxes in our store, so I guess everywhere else too.

It would be helpful if someone could put here email addresses for M&S and B&Q which work.

I think that to get the numbers necessary to have the required ‘clout’ it will be crucial to spread the word about this far and wide.
Can you tell me whether you have any plans to promote it on other online landlords groups as well as property118?
Great as 118 is, a large proportion of landlords may not happen to see it here and I hope that rivalry between groups doesn’t stop it from getting the publicity that is vital for the whole thing to work.

Membership fee will be tax deductible. I presume that once paid we will receive a receipt and membership number or such like. Larry could you please confirm. Many thanks

If you are affected by s.24 then after you deduct tax the net cost to you will only be £60* – it’s the only thing you can thank George Osborne for!!
* – it could even be more if your taxable income exceeds £100k with s.24
