Comment on Confiscate properties from rogue landlords, says senior Labour MP
Maalus@lemmy.world 1 year agoNot how it works everywhere. Also - bullshit on the actual risk being so low after investing all you can afford to lose - you just lost all you could afford to lose which could be thousands.
The reality of it is - you rent out an apartment and need to keep it up. I had landlords come in with powerbanks and extension cords in the middle of the night when the breakers failed. I had them loaning me an AC units. They would renovate regularly.
And I could’ve been a shitty tennant that messed their modern flat, didn’t pay them rent and refused to move out. They would lose a place they lived in for years to some rando off the street.

You’re clearly American, why are you commenting on a thread about UK landlords, and UK company law, using examples not from the UK?

I’m European. Stop assuming shit about people.

My apologies, but same question.

Because hating landlords is present on lemmy everywhere with people using completely irrellevant arguments. You also voiced an opinion that’s completely bullcrap - where losing “all the money you can spare” is somehow equal to losing nothing, when one could have worked for that for years.
