Green Party deputy leader tied to rental properties despite anti-landlord stance

Green Party deputy leader Mothin Ali is linked to two buy-to-let properties in Leeds via his company MA Holdings, which he solely directs. The properties were bought in 2022 and 2025 and Ali says he acted to help vulnerable family members, not for profit. The purchases predate the Greens’ policy to phase out private landlordism and increase council housing, a stance Ali supports alongside the party’s push for stricter rent controls and other regulatory measures.
