"Economic genocide" in the uk?

[Steve]

In the UK, "Static" caravans can be had very cheaply once they are over a certain age. Many holiday sites will not allow caravans over 12 years age, and they also charge several thousand pounds a year ground rent, so these come up for sale cheaply. A decent 38ft long by 12ft wide caravan can be had for £1000. My neighbour has actually given me a 35ft by 10ft one for free, because the cost of having it removed was more than it is worth. He lived in it when he build his house. It has a tow hitch and small wheels, so it is technically mobile, my small tractor will move it easily.
