>Chancellor Rachel Reeves is considering levying an “oligarch premium” on top of a new mansion tax that would see non-UK resident property owners forced to pay more for the country’s most expensive homes.

Don’t let them do it. Just don’t let them buy property unless you can f**ING tax them

The amount of good this would do for Brits and for the general state of economics here is huge. West London has large parts that are just dark and empty with 20 million pound homes.

Idk why we just do this on ‚mosr expensive homes‘.
It would benefit the average renter / house buyer much more if you did it based on total amount of owned property. Bloke in a house worth 10 million doesn’t impact me at all. If the same bloke owns 10 million worth of flats / homes it does

Not just expensive homes. Every non resident owner should pay extra tax . There should be a price for parking their money in the UK

It’d be even better if we just stopped non-citizens from buying domicile properties altogether. They can just rent.

Considering?? Just do it. And make it ridiculous- like 100%. They probably won’t care and buy anyway. Worst case maybe one of us can one day afford a tiny flat in London as the prices will level!

I guess it’s a nice political headline but it will probably generate virtually zero actual income… while showing most investors that this govt doesn’t really have a plan to pull us out of the tax -> degrowth death spiral we’re heading into.

Can we extend this to tax evading ‚expats‘ living in Dubai as well?

Completely ban overseas ownership of property. In Denmark even residents from foreign nations must apply for permission and prove they have a connection to the country before being able to buy property. It works well and is an obvious solution to avoiding empty homes and increased prices for local people.

Good, better yet stop non residents buying property here.
It’s part of the reason house prices, especially in London are so high and citizens are priced out of the market

Yes excellent, let’s continue to raise tax wherever possible without addressing the death spiraling economy
