Could we have a community right to buy long term empty properties as in Scotland ?
As we're highlighting in our Community Britain campaign, community ownership is crucial to protecting crucial local assets like pubs, shops and music venues.
From today’s Plan for Neighbourhoods to the Community Right to Buy, this is a Government committed to communities. 💪
