After all, it's no more than he'd get if all his properties were in Scunthorpe or Warrington. Central London rents must be close on 95% location value.<br /><br />Bayardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211150959757982948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1141932539860553199.post-68575311444025207702013-02-04T11:37:47.835+00:002013-02-04T11:37:47.835+00:00M, according to some reports yes, Cameron decided ...M, according to some reports yes, Cameron decided against Mansion Tax because his big donors all live in Mansions.
