I rent and am a pensioner but I do not agree with this plan. *How would landlords wear the costs of increasing rates, taxes, compliance etc over a 2 year period? Landlords are NOT charities. Many more would probably sell their properties leaving even fewer housing options for renters. *It...

When I was i n Scotland in mid 2019 When visiting the UK in mid 2019 I visited the small town of Mallaig in Scotland. That area of islands, small and often isolated coastal villages, had also suffered 'bank closure disease' however they instituted an excellent alternative - a mobile bank that...
