SECOND HOMES COVID-19 GRANTS RAISED BY TORY MP ATLAST
After years of campaigning by Coastal Lib Dems on second homes tax loophole, a local Tory MP suddenly wakes up to a problem. For almost three years Lib Dem campaigner David Beavan (since elected as Southwold District Councillor in 2019) toiled long and hard with local activists to bring the second homes tax loophole issue to the public's attention. Featured widely in local, national press and TV, the issue was taken to Lib Dem Federal conference by David, eventually raised in the House of Lords by Lib Dem Peers and finally taken up by the current Chancellor Rushi Sunak who agreed to hold a government review of second homes business ownership and rates. The review was launched 18 months ago by Sunak when he was a local government minister and has since been seemingly kicked into the long grass; the findings never having been published.
