🧵1/ Fleecehold is a very apt word for idol, often offshore, tax haven dwelling land occupiers who successive governments have failed to stand up to. It’s not rocket science! End the exploitation of feudalism now. No ifs. No buts. Don’t vote for parties who compromise!

5/ I’ve lost count of the overinflated charges inflicted on leaseholders by Lambeth Council. They have been failed by this administration.
