For their measly council tax, super wealthy Cadogan Estate clients expect local police to protect their almost always empty, 5th homes. <br /><br />Result. A restricted public purse funds the protection of private, offshore wealth. Yet again, the poor subsidise the rich. <br /><br />One of the greatest attractions of K & C and WCC for overseas investors, is security. The Cadogan Estate benefits financially from this. So the Estate should offer the police a well below market price lease for its local police station. Long term this will enhance the value of its property portfolio by infinitely more than the immediate loss of income.<br /><br />The alternative is a further hollowing out of K & C as a place for anyone to live. Not good for property prices. Residentnoreply@blogger.com
