Nothing like balanced views and a free market. It'll be interesting to see where the socialist ideologists re-house their homeless when landlords are forced to sell or worse still repossessed off the back of the mortgage rises. I'm not saying the world is a nice place to be for anyone at the minute financially but very few seem to understand most landlords costs have also increased also.

Well done Hyndburn! All the bad landlords will be collectively quaking in their boots. Three years of a five year licensing scheme to prosecute three landlords, who when you remove the mandatory court costs and victim surcharges have a fine which will equate to less than the licensing fee being charged initially. Prosecuted for not applying rather than poor management and standards as I understand it too. One prosecution a year is excellent……. it’s only cost the good compliant landlords that have applied already circa £948,000 in licences fees. This before you factor the real cost of the ridiculously over bureaucratic conditions. A lot of which they had to remove because they were unlawful yet haven’t gone out of the way to tell anyone. I’m sure the politicians are delighted to see the lives of the tenants improved as would I be if I thought it to be true. However improving the area is a tad misleading when you look at the councils own review of the scheme it’s worth noting house prices in the designation have dropped 18.5% compared with 4.5% in the rest of the borough. It’s not all negative…..at least now we always get a good selection of biscuits at the council.
