The second home thing just makes me furious and I'm not even directly affected by it (very few people want holiday homes in Dagenham). It's just so grotesque. I think second homes should be taxed up the wazzoo and I have no idea why they aren't.
It's ok if you rent it out as an Air BnB when you're not using it, that way the local community benefit from being able to sell them coffee, shine their shoes etc.
