George's Recent Activity

All part of the grand plan to squeeze the little guy out

From: George Dawes 06 March 2021 06:13 AM

I’d ban him for life and give him 10 years in jail , what a scumbag Then take all his properties off him and sell them and give the money to children’s charities

From: George Dawes 03 March 2021 15:10 PM

Solidarity from their mothers basements Epitome of pathetic losers They’re not working class as none of them have a job - or life

From: George Dawes 03 March 2021 15:08 PM

I’m very happy with it , particularly the biz rates reduction and the new recovery loan I can see rishi as the next pm , certainly better than that blithering blonde oaf

Managed by a council ? Lol None of them could manage a pi** up in a brewery, incompetence to the max

From: George Dawes 19 February 2021 04:38 AM

The sooner we ditch gas the better , it’s a total liability plus the supposed savings are eaten up by maintenance, inspections , certification and leaks etc , it’s an archaic form of fuel tbh .

From: George Dawes 19 February 2021 04:35 AM

ummarising the results of years of research, the think-tank came up with nine reasons London and other cities should shun rent controls: Waiting lists for homes are horrendous – an average wait is 11.3 years for an apartment in the capital Stockholm and up to 30 years for subsidised flats Controlling rents pushes up costs for tenants Apartments are sub-let with rents often double the price the primary tenant pays Rent agreements are auctioned on a black market with organised crime moving in for a share of the profits. One in five young renters confess they have bought an illegal contract, while a rash of murders related to sub-letting apartments swept the city in 2014 The cost of renting has skewed the market, with families outpriced by single tenants who now occupy large apartments while pushing families out of town and city centres Companies complain they cannot recruit because rents are too high compared with wages Costly rents have driven a wedge between highly paid and well educated renters who can afford to live where they want, while poorer tenants on benefits must put up with unattractive homes in the suburbs Instead of levelling the rental market, the wealthy dominate, with any apartment in Stockholm larger than 180 square metres rented by someone in the top 1% of earners Rents only go up when landlords improve homes, so landlords carry out costly refurbishments that are unaffordable for average earners

So generous with other people's money

From: George Dawes 15 February 2021 02:35 AM

Janet is 100% correct , sadly ...

From: George Dawes 09 February 2021 10:47 AM

This tory government are at the behest of their backers and advisers ... look them up and you’ll soon see what their mo is ... helping private landlords is at the very bottom of their list

From: George Dawes 09 February 2021 06:57 AM

Loony lefty leader leaves landlords lasting limbo

From: George Dawes 09 February 2021 02:30 AM

I’m going to demand a years rent up front and a guarantor and 5 star references before I even consider letting again

From: George Dawes 07 February 2021 10:59 AM

Labour is now the party for shirkers not workers while the tories are for big business and the bankers We're stuffed

From: George Dawes 06 February 2021 02:12 AM

I’d rather burn the place down than let it to that lot

From: George Dawes 05 February 2021 10:18 AM

They claim everything on expenses...

From: George Dawes 04 February 2021 13:37 PM

I was quoted 15k to improve my epc putting wall cladding on and save 350 a year , 350 , it’d take almost a century to recoup ... what planet are this load of muppets living on ?

From: George Dawes 04 February 2021 13:35 PM

They’ll get us all on electric only , then pull the plug . Quite literally

From: George Dawes 04 February 2021 13:32 PM

All designs to squeeze the little guy out Eventually there will be government controlled properties - council flats that look like a bit of lego , just like the old days but even worse 1984

From: George Dawes 04 February 2021 04:57 AM

Most of the lords are millionaire out of touch old farts living off our taxes and living on another planet Who cares what they think about anything ?

From: George Dawes 03 February 2021 13:36 PM

The lefties live in cloud cuckoo land , couldn’t run a bath let alone a business

From: George Dawes 03 February 2021 13:33 PM

So what ? The councils are full of zombies anyway

From: George Dawes 03 February 2021 11:16 AM

Rent controls from a supposed Tory government, you couldn’t make this stuff up

From: George Dawes 01 February 2021 07:58 AM

There's nothing between this house and the Urals. You're breathing the same air as the Tartars - I should charge you extra. Miss Jones ! On a serious note this is pretty disgraceful tbh . Shades of Dickensian London . So much for progress eh ?

From: George Dawes 01 February 2021 07:55 AM

Well said , this government should spend more time sorting out the tower block cladding crisis than worrying about trivia like this Not every house/ flat is suitable for animals - what about the poor creatures not being able to exercise when there's no outside space ??

From: George Dawes 01 February 2021 05:41 AM

Apparently the electric pump things are expensive but I’m sure after a few years they pay for themselves compared to gas with its maintenance and danger issues

From: George Dawes 30 January 2021 11:42 AM

We are a nation of animal lovers Well , I’m not , I hate the blooming things . Thanks to a family member I’ve ended up with a smelly noisy aggressive moron of an animal and I’m counting the days before it waddles off to doggy heaven .

From: George Dawes 30 January 2021 11:40 AM

Dogs either side of me plus I’ve got one - unwanted I assure you - utter nuisance, they make noise etc , rather have a cat or a gerbil . Actually a tortoise is the perfect pet imo . When it dies you can use it as an ashtray Had one in a flat , it wrecked the place Shame this incompetent government can’t do what it was elected for and stop invading our privacy and our livelihoods

From: George Dawes 29 January 2021 10:16 AM

Maybe going all electric isn’t such a bad idea after all No more gas safety checks , no more danger from carbon monoxide or gas explosion leaks , no more boiler maintenance ripoffs . Just one power source to worry about . If the electricity is down the boiler won’t work anyway. Personally I hate gas . Good bloomin’ riddance

From: George Dawes 28 January 2021 10:16 AM

Definitely , keep them where they belong The House of Lords

From: George Dawes 28 January 2021 09:51 AM

I agree with Dave , crisp not wirth . It’s always the landlord that’s at fault in the media while in my experience it’s the tenant , particularly the under 30 airhead generation

So refusing to pay rent when you’re quite capable isn’t ? It’s all one way

From: George Dawes 27 January 2021 11:13 AM

I fit all my boilers outside with outside ventilation flues and have detectors installed on a ring main with battery backup too just in case You can never be too careful with this terrible thing

Labour so useless they make the Tories look competent

Here he ( dw ) goes again ‘Rolleyes’

From: George Dawes 27 January 2021 11:07 AM

Nothing must stop the council bleeding it's citizens dry. I'd like to know what exactly is the point of a council apart from wasting tax payers money and employing morons ?

From: George Dawes 27 January 2021 08:57 AM

I think we’ve all been sold a pack of lies , what do you expect when you’re dealing with politicians ?

From: George Dawes 26 January 2021 12:54 PM

I find that very hard to believe. /s

From: George Dawes 26 January 2021 12:52 PM

We leave Europe and there’s less Europeans renting in the uk Wow , you don’t have to be Einstein to work that one out , 😂

From: George Dawes 26 January 2021 09:09 AM

I wonder how much this pointless and obvious survey cost the tax payers?

From: George Dawes 26 January 2021 03:25 AM

For a virus with a 98.5% survival rate that only affects over 80’s with underlying health conditions Yes , I call that a scam No flu cases this year how convenient ... and if you die of anything within 28 days of a Covid test they put your death down as Covid .. anything ...

From: George Dawes 25 January 2021 10:41 AM

And look at the fonts , and the colours , this is outrageous, I demand this entire site in fact the whole internet while you’re at it is taken down until this blasphemy has been rectified The public must have answers ! Now , in fact immediately, in fact 5 years before this article was published Yours , mad as a hatter mr wirth

Dave , defending the indefensible as ever SMH

You alright Dave ? You sound flustered Maybe go and lie down for a few years

From: George Dawes 22 January 2021 10:40 AM

Power of the people ? More like the moronic masses . Just look at some of the comments on here as an example. Cough cough 😷

From: George Dawes 22 January 2021 10:39 AM

Along with the catholic church , this lot have billions in property Hypocrites and parasites the lot of them . I thought Jesus taught that physical possessions were unnecessary ??

From: George Dawes 22 January 2021 05:10 AM

That will be the beginning of the end of PRS Rent controls don't work , it's been proven in the past . Then again most politician's are too thick and too cosseted in their public sector wage bubble to work that out.

From: George Dawes 22 January 2021 05:08 AM

They've got to fund those public sector pensions somehow That's where all your hard earned council tax / business rates goes

From: George Dawes 22 January 2021 05:06 AM

Climate emergency ? Man made ? Lol SMH . Google sun flares , methane from cows backsides , under the sea volcanoes etc , the real natural contributors to so called global warming..Some people are so gullible it’s hilarious . Warming and cooling of the earth are naturally occurring cycles . This twaddle is just another excuse for a tax . Nothing more nothing less.

From: George Dawes 21 January 2021 12:38 PM

The whole EPC things is ridiculous and pointless I've never had a tenant ask about it ever , most have never heard of it or care

From: George Dawes 21 January 2021 05:21 AM

Hahaha , brilliant. 😂 What a berk , I’d love to have been in the auction room .. I bet that got the whole lot gasping !

From: George Dawes 20 January 2021 11:42 AM

I used to live in the south west , they’re naturally rebellious , especially against these ridiculous rules - broken by the ministers who set them - looking at matt Hancock playing rugby in a crowd with no mask ...,berk Great down to earth decent hard working people who don’t let the establishment tell them what to do , shame there aren’t more like them

From: George Dawes 20 January 2021 11:38 AM

Thanks Dave , I don’t know how us mere mortals would survive without your pearls of wisdom

From: George Dawes 20 January 2021 11:35 AM

Nobody would employ them in the real world . I’ve dealt with them , it’s like they’re from a different dimension A lazy moronic one

From: George Dawes 20 January 2021 11:14 AM

Air bnb moving into the studio / 1 bed sector in London has had a devastating effect In my area there’s now over 850 of them to let , in the old day’s it was closer to 250 ! Makes my 1 bed flats virtually impossible to let now

From: George Dawes 20 January 2021 07:58 AM

One thing you can always guarantee on is the good old public sector thinking of new ways to milk the private sector dry

From: George Dawes 20 January 2021 07:55 AM

That’s rigsby stuffed then

There’s a first time for everything

Thank god one of my properties has been ltd for over 50 years , not by design , pure luck I’m thinking of changing the other one from a partnership to one too , if that’s feasible of course

From: George Dawes 19 January 2021 10:57 AM

Short term ? We’ll see . I think the long term damage will last years , if it ever fully recovers at all With working from home and the fast internet, offices seem to be pointless now . If there’s no offices needed why live near one or train stations etc ? Great , I’ve just shot myself in the foot with that one

From: George Dawes 19 January 2021 10:54 AM

Seems to be plenty of space between most politicians ears

From: George Dawes 18 January 2021 04:17 AM

My yield is off the charts - when the damn things are let that is , empty they’re a total liability Inherited them from my grandmother, the weekly rent is the same as she paid for them 50 years ago 😂 Asset rich , cash poor. That just about sums up my dilemma....

From: George Dawes 16 January 2021 12:07 PM

The older the better imo

From: George Dawes 15 January 2021 20:24 PM

When they get a job and actually contribute to society I’ll start taking notice of these .... Sorry not going to swear on here . 😂

From: George Dawes 15 January 2021 14:08 PM

Michael has a point Compulsory confiscation... Google - ‘you’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy ‘ I doubt anyone who’s worked hard for years will be happy to have everything taken away from them ...

From: George Dawes 14 January 2021 10:38 AM

Since the property market is the only thing shoring our economy up , it makes sense that they attack it and destroy it for their weird twisted agenda . Our manufacturing businesses are virtually destroyed, the financial market is in the control of the global elite already . Whichever way you turn you’re stuffed . So much for a democracy eh ? Freedom is a state of mind . I’m just glad I won’t be around to see what the younger generation are going to have coming to them . They really are in for the shock of their snowflake lives !

From: George Dawes 14 January 2021 10:33 AM

First step towards compulsory purchase of all private landlord property Google the great reset

From: George Dawes 14 January 2021 05:35 AM

Huge amount of air bnb's in my area have flooded the market , at least i've got a 3 bed to fall back on , but the 1 beds are just a waste of space now ( quite literally )

From: George Dawes 13 January 2021 02:00 AM

I was lucky mine left in August , until this whole plandemic blows over ( if it ever does ) , I see no reason to let again unless the tenants are cast iron guaranteed payers ( some hope ) The future looks bleak tbh

From: George Dawes 13 January 2021 01:58 AM

I’ve already given one of my commercial tenants a deal on the last few years of their lease , despite my solicitor and accountant saying I didn’t need to . Regarding residential, I did it once and won’t make that mistake again Sometimes shops really are preferential to residential

From: George Dawes 12 January 2021 14:47 PM

David reminds me of one of those people walking around wearing placards and proclaiming the end is nigh while everyone else just rolls their eyes and yawns

From: George Dawes 12 January 2021 14:45 PM

I wouldn’t trust my council as far as I could throw the building

From: George Dawes 11 January 2021 10:18 AM

Thank you captain obvious , not you Matthew , this lot , they remind me of the FSB , all talk , no action and a monthly fee for diddly squat

In the words of Paul Calf . Bloody students ! J/K

From: George Dawes 11 January 2021 10:14 AM

Why not just give them the keys and leave them to it , poor snowflakes They can have the deeds while they’re at it and the shirt off my back

From: George Dawes 11 January 2021 10:12 AM

And screws landlords for everything they’ve got Nice to be appreciated ain’t it ?

From: George Dawes 11 January 2021 10:09 AM

Never mind , ignore this post .

From: George Dawes 10 January 2021 12:34 PM

Hopefully people will now realise that conspiracy theories are rapidly becoming facts.. We've got a police force arresting people for sitting on a park bench or eating an ice cream but can't be bothered to sort out burglary etc A government pushing a ridiculous agenda to get vaccinated against a virus with a 98.5% survival rate A political system openly allowing people to live rent free and even encouraging it at the cost of so many small landlords It goes on and on... The world truly has gone crazy

From: George Dawes 10 January 2021 02:48 AM

Don’t sweat it , you’re obviously a decent landlord and more importantly a very decent human being Leicester landlord and John smith are one and the same and 3rd rate trolls

From: George Dawes 09 January 2021 13:46 PM

It’s all going to backfire , they really don’t think this legislation through do they ? All u turns and knee jerk reactions None of them would last 5 minutes in the private sector

He merely intimated they seemed to be ; adjective (Informal) tense, wired (slang), nervous, edgy, jittery (informal), uptight (informal), on edge, twitchy (informal), on tenterhooks, keyed up, antsy (informal), a bundle of nerves (informal), under a strain ‘Those who saw him at the Olympics will recall just how strung up he was.’ No idea what goes on in some people’s deranged little minds , stop projecting I’d say

I agree 100000000000% It was on the bbc , since they specialise in repeats - did you see the garbage they put on over Xmas ? - you’d think they’d do the same with the fireworks . Doubt anyone would notice the difference Dads army 1975 special as the Xmas day highlight , says it all really

From: George Dawes 08 January 2021 12:22 PM

Planning obligations under Section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended), commonly known as s106 agreements, are a mechanism which make a development proposal acceptable in planning terms, that would not otherwise be acceptable. They are focused on site specific mitigation of the impact of development. S106 agreements are often referred to as 'developer contributions' along with highway contributions and the Community Infrastructure Levy.

From: George Dawes 08 January 2021 10:52 AM

I had an s106 and found they wanted the money for statues , water fountains and adventure playgrounds Really useful contribution to the economy

From: George Dawes 08 January 2021 10:26 AM

I’m certainly glad for that advice , with the perils of global warming it’s usually 30 degrees Celsius winter time in London Hang on

Just the first step towards compulsory purchase of all freehold property We have to pay back the corona loans somehow

From: George Dawes 08 January 2021 10:19 AM

Not enough money for services , enough for a million quid fireworks display pushing his whole lefty agenda Blm etc - does he realise what their ridiculous agenda really is , if so makes him look even more deluded ? Politics is always involved in property, just look at our beloved incompetent corrupt councils as an example You’ve obviously never had to deal with their planning departments...

From: George Dawes 08 January 2021 10:15 AM

When I want your advice on anything David worth-less I’ll pull your gimp chain , until then go and sit in the corner and put your dunce cap on. You love pontificating all day long without actually saying anything of real useful constructive meaning . I bet you’re fun at party’s .

From: George Dawes 08 January 2021 10:03 AM

The March budget should be interesting ... rishi and his banker pals will be thinking up ever more ridiculous reasons to fleece / destroy the working and middle classes for their global elite's twisted agenda Wealth / property tax , In-life inheritance tax , climate twaddle tax , global warming etc etc , you can just imagine all the crap they're going to come out with to pay for the virus with a 98.5% survival rate

Over a million quid on fireworks ... the man beggars belief with his incompetence and hypocrisy

If my various properties don't rent by April = with the new tax year looming and the possible re introduction of biz rate and a property tax / wealth tax , I'm selling up and most probably leaving this hell hole of a joke country Thanks Boris and your team of incompetent corrupt toerags , and Kier you ain't much better ( arguably worse ) for ruining the economy over a virus with a 98.5% survival rate . Covid isn't SARS , Bird Flu or Ebola , it's not even as bad as seasonal flu !!! We all know now who's in charge and it ain't the puppet politicians .

Quite true , for me references are now king , Got fingers burned with a right pair recently. From a very well known family , kid turned out to be a wrong un , rushed into the property by an incompetent agent and just glad they've gone - rather have it empty tbh Onward and upward , 2021 .. things can only get better ( fingers crossed )

My properties are impossible to upgrade to epc a or b , might as well sell them if they keep moving the goalposts This tory government strikes me as more left wing than labour !!!

From: George Dawes 25 December 2020 06:02 AM

Labour are the most hypocritical political party as they pretend to be for the workers and to have a heart and so compassionate etc etc 'barf' but they're just as corrupt as the tories if not more so , at least the tories are obvious and don't pretend to care about people Lord this , Baron that , Kinnock etc etc As for their incompetent corrupt financially moronic councils ... Make me want to vomit with their crass hypocritical garbage

From: George Dawes 25 December 2020 05:57 AM

It should be pretty obvious now that the government are hellbent on destroying the PRS They only care about BIG business and all the 'advantages' they bring... Councils are beyond derision ; useless , hopeless , pointless

From: George Dawes 24 December 2020 01:54 AM

Councils = another layer of pointless red tape filled with idiots who wouldn't last 5 minutes in the real world

Seriously considering selling up , renting is rapidly becoming a total nightmare

I looked into it on a recent renovation in a central prime London area , my gas engineer who resisted installing it said it was inefficient , ridiculously expensive and 5-10 years from being a useful product alternative to a condenser gas boiler

From: George Dawes 14 December 2020 15:36 PM

Committee on Climate Change The Committee on Climate Change was formally launched as a statutory committee in December 2008 with Lord Turner as its chair. In April 2013, it was announced that Lord Turner would be joining George Soros' economic think tank as a senior research fellow in its London offices. Join the dots…

From: George Dawes 14 December 2020 12:40 PM

They’re funded by soros ...

From: George Dawes 14 December 2020 12:36 PM

The gas boiler makes the biggest difference to your epc rating , Google it if you don’t believe me

From: George Dawes 13 December 2020 15:28 PM

That’s just what the market needs… Pretty obvious this whole charade like the global warming scam is a devious underhand plot to destroy the middle class through stealth taxes The corona scam is to be paid via a supposed one off wealth tax ( no doubt it will be permanent and increase annually )… but it never hits the truly wealthy just people like most landlords who through no fault of their own are asset rich and cash poor Now they're putting vat on rentals .... outrageous really , what next ?? Pre-Inheritance tax etc ?? So much for a democracy - the UK now is more like China than China is/was

From: George Dawes 13 December 2020 06:40 AM

I agree My multi million pound portfolio agrees too

From: George Dawes 12 December 2020 15:40 PM

Then they’ll move the goalposts.. again

From: George Dawes 11 December 2020 09:46 AM

You get what you pay for . I’ll stick with my current agents thx . Commercial agents on the other hand are , in my experience, utterly useless .

From: George Dawes 11 December 2020 09:45 AM

May as well rewrite the header as ‘how to rent without paying any rent’ Good old Tories , screwing the electorate for all it’s worth . Then again labour are even more useless , if that’s humanly possible

From: George Dawes 11 December 2020 09:43 AM

Best of British luck with that , the government won’t take a blind bit of notice., as usual This lot remind me of the FSB , a toothless organisation set up to squeeze money out of gullible businesses

From: George Dawes 11 December 2020 09:41 AM

I was told during a tax investigation by a tax inspector over 25 years ago that the vat level was going to rise to 100k 25 years later it still hasn’t !

From: George Dawes 11 December 2020 09:38 AM

If you’re naive enough to believe that politicians are there for anything but their own self interests , maybe it’s time for you to grow up ? Looking at the laughable incompetence of Boris etc in their handling of the current plandemic says it all really . Dodgy deals , mistruths , downright lies. All part and parcel of being a modern day politician A pandemic with 98.5% survival rate that only affects over 80’s .... gullible or what ?

From: George Dawes 11 December 2020 09:35 AM

We're going through the corona scam next it's the climate change con It's not long before you realise all the real criminals aren't in prison , they're in parliament

From: George Dawes 10 December 2020 04:44 AM

That's why I concentrate on 3+ bed flats , 1 beds are a waste of time due to ex-air bnb flooding the market

From: George Dawes 10 December 2020 04:42 AM

The traditional High Street is dead , the plandemic and the internet have done that Ridiculous business rates and high pice parking don't help Great Idea !!

From: George Dawes 04 December 2020 04:53 AM

Yet council tax & business rates increases year on year as usual

From: George Dawes 04 December 2020 02:11 AM

About time too , It's been far too much in favour of the tenant during this plandemic

From: George Dawes 02 December 2020 04:01 AM

"“has voiced concerns that the eviction may also trigger her son, who may react badly to a sheriff officer encroaching on his personal space" Poor little snowflake

From: George Dawes 01 December 2020 02:50 AM

That'll all come crashing down like a pack of dominoes soon enough

From: George Dawes 30 November 2020 01:52 AM

Platitudes don't pay the bills, the tories are obviously the party of big business and bankers , they don't care about small businesses or the workers and especially PRS Labour are the party of the shirkers and the dole scroungers with a no face leader millionaire hypocrite QC drip bobbing his head in late agreement with the blonde clown Sadly it seems there's no party that represents the working man/woman anymore

From: George Dawes 30 November 2020 01:22 AM

They don't want landlords , they want it all Never going to happen

From: George Dawes 25 November 2020 07:05 AM

What about security for the landlord ? These 'tenants' aren't living in the real world

From: George Dawes 25 November 2020 06:35 AM

If it's anything like their products , it'll be an unreliable cheap copy of Apple I'll pass thx

From: George Dawes 11 November 2020 06:36 AM

I'm leaving mine empty until this corona-scam is over , hopefully in time for the rates to kick in next april

Depends what part of London , the labour controlled crime ridden dumps have always been awful and full of 'diversity' Plenty of parts of London that are desirable still ...

More pointless red tape , just what we need in a pandemic

From: George Dawes 30 October 2020 02:40 AM

I would wish that the out of touch , incompetent public sector government would stay out of the PRS entirely

From: George Dawes 29 October 2020 05:58 AM

He probably thought his outrageously high council tax and / or business rates paid for this when in reality it's used to pay gold plated public sector pensions

From: George Dawes 29 October 2020 05:56 AM

Climate crisis , lol Another ratchild fuelled con

In the house of lords , paid a small fortune to sit on her fat pontificating arse , probably lives in Hampstead in a flash million pound mansion , totally out of touch with reality

Twitter ? That awful platform is best avoided if you want to retain a smidgen of sanity

From: George Dawes 27 October 2020 07:08 AM

Interesting ....

From: George Dawes 25 October 2020 02:26 AM

This is just the beginning , once the council get a taste for it , they'll be introducing all kinds of pointless red tape drivel to make up for their financial incompetence

From: George Dawes 22 October 2020 11:34 AM

Why I concentrate on 3-4 beds and commercial with high £ , studio/1 beds are a non starter as they attract kids with no money and there's a glut of them thanks to air bnb flooding the market

From: George Dawes 21 October 2020 02:28 AM

Probably explains why the tories are behind it - their paymasters want a financial reset , what better way than to destroy the housing market completely Labour as proven by the coronavirus con are just as bad and puppets too They all live in a public sector bubble so have no idea about the real world

From: George Dawes 20 October 2020 14:40 PM

Trim down the council, lower YOUR overheads and waste - easy as that . Sadly as they're public sector they haven't got a clue about financial management and blame everyone but themselves

From: George Dawes 16 October 2020 03:00 AM

I had one of these HMRC investigations a few years ago , all bluster and twaddle Basically an excuse for the inspectors to do a bit of shopping in London , on expenses no doubt .. I bumped into one getting out of a taxi holding some John Lewis bags..his reaction said it all . I should have reported him tbh... Then again air bnb is a total nuisance and the sooner it's eradicated the better imo

From: George Dawes 10 October 2020 07:41 AM

Perhaps he could have a 2 year pay freeze ? Make it 22 years

From: George Dawes 08 October 2020 09:51 AM

Looking through many EPC's the 3 biggest contributors towards an improved score are low energy lighting , insulation for the roof and a condensing boiler Double glazing doesn't seem to make much difference oddly enough

From: George Dawes 08 October 2020 09:50 AM

Definitely an option . Had enough of the BS the council / govt are up to . Send it spend it rolling along...

From: George Dawes 08 October 2020 09:44 AM

To make money more like.

From: George Dawes 08 October 2020 09:43 AM

The tories have become new labour and Corbyn's commie chaos party are even more extreme The bland boring hypocrite fronting the current Labour party is a figurehead designed to appeal to the electorate , behind him it's the same seething pile of politics of envy with ridiculous ideology based on fantasy not facts Might as well vote loony party tbh

From: George Dawes 08 October 2020 09:41 AM

Nobody ever seems to upvote any of Mark Wilson's comments Can't think why ... 'rolleyes'

From: George Dawes 08 October 2020 09:37 AM

Then they'll move the goalposts - making it harder to achieve a C grade then B then A until it's utterly impossible then they'll do us all a favour and take the property off our hands at knock down prices. We've spent all our money doing them up too... That's obviously their long term plan.. greedy load of £$£@@!

From: George Dawes 02 October 2020 07:37 AM

My last epc recommended wall lining costing £14k pa giving a saving of £275 , taking 51 years to break even These idiots aren't living in the real world

Second wave of what ? 0.2% mortality rate and only affects 80+ with underlying health problems Google Whitty , Vallance and Hancock and their ties/connections to big pharma - it's all a big scam

From: George Dawes 29 September 2020 03:48 AM

Missed entirely on purpose

From: George Dawes 28 September 2020 06:26 AM

I had to re possess one flat and my kin is now living in it as this corona twaddle means it's far too risky to let , fortunately I've got a couple of commercial lets that seem to have a lot less red tape to them ( for now ) no doubt the govt and council are thinking up ways to milk me dry on that front too Either way being a LL these days is a thankless task

From: George Dawes 27 September 2020 02:26 AM

The Govt wants rid of Private LL's that's obvious , along with most sme's . Too much hassle when they're bankrolled by their rich banker elite pals. Totally corrupt political system as ever. I fear for the future , look at this corona drivel , 0.2% mortality rate and affects only over 80's with underlying health concerns ... Things are not what they seem

From: George Dawes 26 September 2020 07:53 AM

All entries to be placed in a brown paper envelope left on the steps behind the local public toilets ( folding money proffered and lots of it )

From: George Dawes 26 September 2020 07:50 AM

Another way for the incompetent public sector to milk businesses , no doubt the license will incrase every year above inflation

From: George Dawes 24 September 2020 02:39 AM

As Paul Barrett has said many times the Govt want rid of small landlords. Tories and Labour are equally pandering to the tenant vote , thing is they're shooting themselves in the foot as I can see everything returning to the bad old days and slum tenements with rachman level landlords It's almost like it's all been planned ...
