The Government has shelved its plans to abolish leasehold in England and Wales, backtracking on its promise to end this feudal system of homeownership.
After announcing that leasehold would be abolished, many cancelled their plans to undertake statutory lease extension. The Government’s U-turn has placed many leaseholders in limbo.
The Co-operative Party has long campaigned for leasehold reform: we believe we need to strengthen and promote commonhold alongside co-operative housing tenure, to protect homeowners and renters from unreasonable costs.
Take action now and join our campaign to end the leasehold scandal and give everyone a real say over the places they call home.
