Man alone, help scarce,
Art, many yearn to salvage.
In echoes, it's saved.
Another example of capitalism making it impossible for someone most deserving to own their own home. A masterpiece representing human spirit at threat since its inception, simply because of incessant greed.
He essentially stole the landlords house by vandalising it in a way that greatly devalues it as a place to live for anyone but himself, then getting it listed as a historic place so that the damage is legally irreversible and the house is sold at auction for a fraction of the previous value. Great that he got to live out his papier mache dreams but make no mistake, he did it at a cost of probably £350000 to other people.
At least those people were landlords. I think I can live with that.
Is your issue with the ownership of property in general, or leasing the use of property to others?
Why not both? Jealousy knows no bounds.
It sold for £335,000 against a guide price of £325,000 to £350,000.
