WHAT a delight to read the letters and look at the photo in this week’s Journal.

The Postbag has seldom had such a load of piffle with the exception of Messrs Steel and Fairlie who seem to have a sensible approach to the problem facing the country with regards to affordable housing. I can assure your readers that there are far stronger laws protecting the tenant than there is protecting the landlord. Buy to let landlords in general are made up of simple retired people trying to make a small and reasonable return on their capital that cannot be made with banks anymore.
