Protect pub tenants from eviction due to Government enforced lockdowns.
We call on the Government urgently to intervene in this ludicrous position we find ourselves in and to take action on these unscrupulous LANDLORDS AND PROPERTY DEVELOPERS. We recommend the government, the landlords, the banks and the tenants alike “SHARE THE PAIN” and split the losses equally.
Without immediate intervention from the Government, under 'common law' tenants are liable for 100% of the commercial rental arrears & landlords insurance incurred during these lockdowns.
The Government will soon find itself with a massive increase of business closures, unemployment & homelessness.
Not only are these pubs our livelihoods, they are also social hubs for the community & our family homes.
The hospitality sector will be decimated without further intervention from the government.
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:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Commercial contracts are a matter for the parties to them, and not the UK Govenment or Parliament.
We could accept a petition calling for the Government to provide a fund to support pub tenants, or a temporary ban on commerical evictions, if that's what you'd like to see happen.
