nr, 2 months ago Every Scottish council with the exception of Glasgow, Falkirk & North Ayrshire will be using their new powers to double the council tax of 2nd homes. It’s estimated there are over 24,000 of these in #Scotland. Does make me wonder why those 3 Councils chose to be in the minority during a #housingcrisis? Extremely disappointing, especially for the country’s largest city. #scotpol #uk #ukpolitics #ukpol #glasgow #falkirk #housing #northayrshire https://news.stv.tv/scotland/local-authorities-to-charge-double-council-tax-for-second-homes-under-new-powers

nr, 2 months ago Worth noting that #Wales has introduced similar legislation years ago & has increased the amount councils can charge 2nd home owners by up to 300%. Hopefully this can be replicated here @ScottishGreens @lornaslater @patrickharvie #scotpol #scotland #politics #uk
