Rejected petition British government has to help it's subjects living in Spain who are about to lose their homes

More details

There are thousands of ex-pat Brits who are living under the threat of losing their houses because corrupt land developers and mayors have realised that they can make a quick buck by buying land illegally then making the home owners pay the fines imposed by the Valencian government. This includes many old and frail pensioners who are about to lose everything. We need the Foreign Office to step in and help them out urgently.
