We are asking all landlords to complete this Poll.

Oops! We could not locate your form.

We are also extremely interested in your views so please post comments.

For example, you may well despise what the Conservative Government has done and you may well mistrust them but will any other party be better?

If landlords vote for minor parties might this hand a win to Labour?

Do you think a coalition Government is likely, and if so between which parties?

Which party would you least prefer to be elected and why?

Could not voting hand this election to Labour?

Yes Barry, your right.
Its in Every voters best interests to see that their vote isn't 'wasted' to have Proportional Representation
Then, everyone's views can be represented, proportionally...
Just goes to show the ignorance / apathy of mass voters not to have realised this and to have lobbied their M.P's ( lots don't know they can, or how to - they walk amongst us 😉

It's only going to be changed by the party in power (unless is it is some coalition) who got in under the FPTP system. So changing it would like turkeys voting for Christmas.

Hence why it's all the more depressing.

There is one great benefit of proportional representation, every vote gets heard, However, that is also its downfall, as with so many parties and different views, you end up with NO party in control and running the country, that means its like the EU, 28 different view points and no agreement, so a lame government where nothing gets done......
It is pure democracy on one hand and a catastrophic on the other....

I'm not sure about you but sometimes 'nothing' getting done is actually a good think such as 24 as one example.Anyone want to put a solitary stone in downing street (after removing a shed load of crap legislation of course!)

We certainly have a mentality that politicians *must* be tinkering with the system ALL of the time. More legislation is not better -we should be aiming for less rules, not piling them on top of each other.

As for the highlighted problems proportional representation can bring, is it beyond the realms of possibility that we elect a choice of say six parties and vote proportionally for one of those short-listed. I am inclined to agree that hundreds of niche-interest political groups could cause havoc (and they'd all end up putting some differences aside to join forces to strengthen themselves anyway).

The problem with government is that parties 'tinker', they put a solution forward to solve 1 problem, but never look at the cause & effect, so thus create the law of unexpected consequences.....thus solve 1 problem but create new ones they hadn't perceived!
thats why loopholes are created & avoidance happens, and of cause in section 24, a potential repeal on the back of;
1) rents rising fast
2) increase in homeless going to councils, with sky rocketing costs
3) even less PRS homes as landlords sell off, and no where for people to rent

remembering, that to create large amounts of houses can take 4-8 yrs......so @100% tenant tax, a gap will arise at some point.

If you think, you were hard done by Tories and think that you will come out smelling of roses if Labour were to win then you go another thing coming. Labour will ensure 20% Interest Relief Credit is removed together will Repairs as Tax deductible Expense. John McDonnell Shadow Chancellor explicitly stated above last year.

Rot in Hell Labour! Conservative not ideal but still a best choice amongst bunch of muppets.
