Petition re interest tax deduction

Just in case anyone wants to sign a petition for interest to be properly tax deductible again…

I suspect pigs might fly though!

I can’t believe the government can’t see that all they are achieving is to create a rental property shortage and push up rents.

But if we do nothing, we can’t complain if nothing happens.

True, I think rent hikes is what we’ll be doing.

I think the penny will only drop once more and more end up homeless due to landlords dumping more stock.

Rent caps would just destroy BTL, look at Scotland.

Just signed.

I actually can not comprehend how the government had the cheek to deny you your legal right to offset the money you have paid to the 3rd party for their services against your profit. Isn’t it just a robbery? How is it different from just stealing the money from your bank account at random? The result is definitely the same.

Signed, although I suspect will need sharing more widely by many to get the votes up

I’ve signed this petition and have also shared on some landlords Facebook forums. “Between the government which does evil and the people who accept it – there is a certain shameful solidarity.” Victor Hugo.
