I'm currently looking to buy a flat/house. One issue I'm having is that I really don't want to buy a place with tenants and kick them out, but holy poo poo is it difficult to find places that aren't tenanted near city centres. Do ya'll think it's not super lovely if I give them enough warning and probably lower the rent for the duration they're still staying there?

Lungboy posted:Getting rid of tenants can take *forever* if they know their rights and you don't follow the correct procedure to the absolute letter, and even then it might take months. Also, if you need a mortgage then you'll have to get a BTL mortgage as you need vacant possession for a standard mortgage. It's a huge nightmare and I wouldn't recommend it. My mortgage situation is sorted, so this is really about the morality of the whole thing than the pragmatics. I'm currently renting but I don't mind it taking months as long as my current place doesn't insist on a full year's contract and lets me roll with a couple of months notice before leaving.

Angrymog posted:IANAL, but isn't, "It's my house, and I'd like to live in it now" one of the easiest ways to get tenants out? Pretty much. Two month's notice and that's it if done properly as far as I'm aware. The issue is that I don't want to be a massive loving rear end in a top hat and kick people out onto the street with 2 month's notice and even the thought of giving them a full year doesn't sit well with me because I am still kicking people out of their home. Yes, it could happen for lots of other reasons, especially if the place is for sale, but that doesn't mean I want to be the one doing it.

I'd rather people traipsed a bit of mud onto my floors, at least I can sweep that up. You'd hope people would be self aware enough not to take them off right after the gym, yes. It's not like this is a hot country and that thing is just standard, though if it is for someone for some reason I can understand that.

Strom Cuzewon posted:So if travellers trespass the police are just gonna seize their legally owned vehicles/homes? God is this the next 5 years? Just a quiet nonchalant slide into fascism. I've already seen the police do this for homeless people for years. I had to beg them to leave a note to tell that person where they can pick up their stuff.

Other than the emphatic victory bit that's not what he's saying at all. Not to defend Mirvis who is a giant loving rear end, but he has worded it very carefully to sound reasonable.

Sanford posted:I realise things are somewhat bleak on the politics front atm, but a local (Tory) parish councillor now apparently hates me so much his response to my recent letter was to shout “I’ve had enough of bloody [Sanford]!” and bang his fist on the table, inviting a reprimand from the clerk. It’s the little things. In my head he also turned bright red as he did that.

Surprise T Rex posted:How does a bidet/shattaf actually work? Surely it either has enough pressure to sort of hose the poo off (and thus potentially spray water everywhere) or it just sort of moistens your bumhole and still needs wiping but then you have to deal with soggy loo roll falling to bits. It's got enough pressure to get the poo poo off your rear end, but not to rip your anus apart hth

In that case we completely forgot because we are a professional and put together enterprise. Apologies! You should still come on! If you have any idea for an ep you'd be interested in doing let us know and we can probably swing it.

The best way to not let the far right pose as free speech martyrs is to treat their views as legitimate points to be debated. I am very smart.

ukle posted:Any teachers hearing the same re school closures. Have a relative who texted me to say her school is now likely to be closed from Monday, I would assume this is nationwide. Jedit posted:If schools are closing it will be on an authority by authority basis. I haven't heard anything about closures in Aberdeenshire yet, and I would expect to hear that within an hour of an announcement. What Jedit said. I work for a teaching union and haven't heard anything yet, so nothing official is happening at the moment.

Looks like the plan for basically every event is "wait for the government to cancel poo poo otherwise we lose our deposits" which is... A really bad plan. You're playing chicken with Johnson and the stakes are deposits / lives. Hopefully people will be reasonable and cancel events even if the government doesn't order them to before they're scheduled to happen.
