Yes, immediate universal abolition of all existing and future leaseholds to grant homeowners full control

This radical approach aligns well with the AWP's transformative social agenda. Crucially, leasehold contracts often include 'no pets' clauses that the AWP strongly opposes; immediate universal abolition would be the most effective way to empower homeowners to keep animal companions without interference from freeholders.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Animal Welfare Party (AWP) identifies as a progressive party that views housing as a fundamental right rather than a tool for profit. They generally align with other UK progressive parties that view the leasehold system as an outdated, 'feudal' structure and would likely support its replacement with the fairer commonhold model.

Agree

Yes, focus on banning new leaseholds for houses while reforming ground rent costs for flats

While the AWP would support any reform that limits leasehold exploitation, they typically favor more comprehensive systemic changes rather than moderate, incremental reforms that leave existing flat-owners under the current regime.

Disagree

No, focus on strengthening the rights of leaseholders to extend leases more cheaply

Strengthening rights is seen as a secondary measure that fails to address the underlying power imbalance and the specific issue of restrictive covenants, such as those banning animals, which are inherent to the leasehold system.

Strongly disagree

No

The AWP platform emphasizes fairness and social justice; maintaining a system widely criticized for being exploitative and stripping residents of control over their own homes would be inconsistent with their core values.

Very strongly disagree

No, set a policy that the current system provides a stable framework for building management

The AWP would reject the notion that the current leasehold system provides a 'stable framework,' viewing it instead as an unjust system of property management that prioritizes landlords over the rights of residents and their animal companions.
