1 and 3: rent is determined by supply and demand, not input costs. 2: foreign landlords are subject to UK tax for UK property rentals. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/non-resident-landord-guidance-notes-for-letting-agents-and-tenants-non-resident-landlords-scheme-guidance-notes/what-the-non-resident-landlords-scheme-is 4: paying squalid hotels to house asylum seekers short term is fantastically expensive. This £200m is a relatively small amount (compared to the housing market as a whole) and will lead to a small increase in the amount of short term housing stock owned by councils. 5 and 6: because that's where the money is. You didn't mention the other "solution" proposed by various NIMBYs: oppose infill housing projects like the one discussed here and attempt to reduce their size wherever possible based on disingenuous arguments. -
How curious! Two of mine are flowering. Both are usually kept outside. The smaller one is budding all over. The larger one (with lighter green leaves) has a single, open flower. Both are now inside due to the freezing temperatures.

Another recommendation for Iain and Paul at Oddbods. They have installed a shed base and built a new shed for me as well as removing an old boiler cupboard. I am very pleased with their work and they are also very efficient, friendly and excellent with their communication. I had an issue with the date of the shed delivery and Iain kindly moved his jobs around so it could be completed before Christmas. I have already asked them to quote for another job so would definitely recommend Oddbods!

We have a hosing crisis - high levels of homelessness - including children, soaring rents, rising house prices, shortage of homes - and our solution? Tax BTL landlords (leading to increased rent to cover tax liabilities), Encourage oversees investors (tax incentives as no tax liability) Encourage corporations to buy properties (increase rent to increase profit and tax planning to reduce liability) Prioritise new homes for asylum seekers. Raise money from taxing owners of expensive homes increase stamp duty WHERE IS THE LOGIC
