UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Well obviously as an average, some land lords will need or want to absorb some of it, some wont. But as I mentioned, the heavily leveraged or greedy ones in high demand areas will more than likely pass on more, as that's what happened with the interest rate rises.
I think if it goes up even 25% of the amount its still going to make a hell of a lot of renters unhappy at a time that the government should be avoiding that.
