Image: EV-0057 — Hansard: Ted Rowlands MP criticises Western Ground Rents and BP pension fund

Quotation: the most rapacious ground landlord, Western Ground Rents, has been bought by the BP pension fund, which is behaving in the same rapacious and, at times, unfeeling and uncaring way in handling the genuine requests of householders.

Proves: On 22 May 1980, Ted Rowlands MP criticised in the House of Commons how the BP pension fund, as buyer of Western Ground Rents, was treating householders’ requests.

Does not prove: Does not mention Great House Farm, Llandough, or the Williams/Buckler family; Concerns only the WGR–BP ownership chain.
