The tax increase is 2% so the increase of £2500 means they’re already paying £125,000 a year in tax on their properties. That would put them in the top rate of tax at 47% if its their sole income which means they’re still going to be raking in more than £130,000 a year minus other costs.

In other words, they’re a greedy arse hole and I don’t care that he “can’t afford” to lose a little money.
