CURRENT FOCUS· Definition

"Protect local residents" — which residents? The landlord converting flats to short-lets is a resident. The renter being evicted is a resident. The barista who needs tourists and the pensioner who can't board the bus are both residents. A cap protects some of these people *from* the others. Say which, or the phrase is doing your arguing for you.

Fair pour. Then I'll say which: the ones who stay when the season ends. A pub survives on regulars and delights in strangers — never the reverse. When a city flips that ratio, every kind of local you listed loses eventually, landlord last. He just doesn't smell it yet.
