Thankyou to The Leaseholders Charity LKP @LKPleasehold, @sebastianokelly and @LiamSpender for their stirling efforts this week in keeping leaseholders informed of what's been happening in the courtroom during the Judicial Review 👏 leaseholdknowledge.com

Today @mtpennycook has replied to me on when consultation will start on valuation rates used to calculate the cost of enfranchisement premiums. He has confirmed it will be after the High Court outcome and has reassured leaseholders the government is robustly defending the case.

This is precisely why we need the secondary legislation of LAFRA, which is happening: to bring equality of arms in leasehold litigation; standardise service charges and safeguard the money. Leaseholders will hugely benefit from this.

We have issued legal letters to four of the UK's largest freeholders. The ultimate beneficiaries of some of these companies are amongst the wealthiest people in the UK. We spoke with @BBCNews about the national scandal affecting thousands of leaseholders across the country.…

.@JohnLyonCharity confident of victory in Judicial Review. Ironical - and Solomon like - if we win on ending marriage value and they win on 0.1% GR cap in enfranchisement process (because of no consultation). charitynewsdesk.co.uk/2025/07/21/joh…

No. Leasehold is being broken in stages. Finish LAFRA. Win Judicial Review before enactment. Then new, separate Bill on commonhold. Completely wrong to dive into wide-ranging new Bill and cock it up, like 2002.

You’re not fixing anything. You’re shamelessly regurgitating policies introduced by the previous Tory government. No original thought, just like with leasehold reform.

Interestingly @MayorofLondon also blocks buybacks of SO homes based on building safety arguments, further demonstrating that not even GLA who distributes grants for delivering SO has any trust in this product. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Tchenguiz, E&J, @LongHarbourLtd and GRIF Funds had seasonal greeting cards from @LiamSpender last week. 20,000 leaseholders have joined the insurance class action: @NLC_2019 @EOCS_Official @FreeLeasehlders bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

LKPleasehold's tweet card. Property firms allegedly charged leaseholders commission for arranging buildings insurance without telling them.

To be clear: SO providers should be made to offer buy-back, not taxpayers subsidising it. It is an unbalanced contract and they should demonstrate confidence in the stuff they build @mtpennycook This is going to be bigger scandal than leasehold

TThe Shared Owners' Network@SharedOwnersNet · Jul 21

🔴 BUYBACKS 🖋️ @LKPleasehold "given the complexity and unbalanced nature of shared ownership (...) an obligatory buy-back scheme should be imposed on all shared ownership providers" We agree. Funding shared ownership buybacks should be a govt priority. leaseholdknowledge.com/leaseholders-s…

At @LondonAssembly report launch in Parliament last week, Mark D'Ambra of @ResourcesShared called for shared ownership buy-back, and @HarryScoffin said end game is to get full leaseholder control at West India Quay which will cut service charges by 30% leaseholdknowledge.com/leaseholders-s…

Knowsley Council has been paying more than £3000 per day to provide the 'waking watch' but the agreement is coming to an end on Monday July 21, when MFRS is then expected to serve the Prohibition Notice. @EOCS_Official @NLC_2019 liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool…

1) Are you suggesting the building safety issues weren’t there before the RTM? 2) The RTM went some time ago so when will you fix your building? 3) Is it you or the leaseholders paying to insure the building even though they can’t live there?

I should have mentioned that the building owner is Drake Hall Ltd which is either owned/controlled/ or has significant influence by someone well reported on LKP. Mr Mark Hawthornthwaite leaseholdknowledge.com/tag/mark-hawth…

Most off the poster followed me then criticised LKP and then blocked me. Oh well. Any idea what PIFs might be. Apparently we support them

We successfully challenged commissions hidden within our insurance premiums in the Tribunal. The Upper Tribunal determined that over £1M in commissions was repayable by the Landlord to our leaseholders (a decision that has since helped Liam & others). canaryriverside.london/insurance-s27a

Loving the contribution from Stephen Jordan KC - 'it would be unfair to roll out this life-saving treatment as previous patients didn't have the benefit & it's too late to save them now' 🙄
