House buyers caught up in stamp duty scramble back Post campaign for an extension to deadline

The couple are in the ever-growing conveyancing queue after deciding to take advantage of the tax holiday and move from a three-bedroom semi in Leyland to a four-bed detached in Buckshaw Village.

And they are backing our "Don't Stamp it Out" campaign to have the holiday extended to allow those people caught up in the logjam to complete without facing the tax penalty.

Normally Sarah and Gary would have had enough time to complete before the March 31 deadline set by Chancellor Rishi Sunak.
