Scrutinise property negligence that could cripple the UK's arts venues.
The pandemic has wounded our fragile yet productive arts industry which requires protecting in a post Covid, sovereign Britain. Venues that house our proud culture are still expected to work in strangulated conditions and adhere to unfair demands by the agents within the property sector.
Boris Johnson himself has prided Britain's independence and encouraged our businesses to become more independent with less reliance on multi national companies and businesses. We must ensure that our independent arts venues are protected from rising rent rates and that the actions of the landlords/estate agents, including other agents, within the UK property industry are firmly scrutinised to stop venues being financially intimidated into submission during these new and challenging times.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
You want the actions of private landlords of properties used for the arts to be scrutinised but it is not clear which actions beyond rent increases you feel should be scrutinised, or how.
You could start a petition calling for the Government to implement rent controls to support the arts and cultural sector, if that is something you'd like to happen.
