Sadly, this kind of practice from landlords is routine.

Many of our members fear speaking out against dangerous conditions because they know they are risking revenge eviction.

It won't stop until we end section 21.

I got my section 21 after one of the guys I lived with saw mice running around on the kitchen countertop in broad daylight and complained more firmly than we had all been randomly complaining ( for years ) about the mouse problem.

The landlords decided in favour of the mice 🙃

Tom was served an eviction notice after chasing vital repairs for 18 months!

The gov. & landlord lobby are giving the green light to this exploitative practice by protecting landlord power.

To say that the current bill 'levels the playing field' is an insult to ALL renters.

It is not for landlords to tell renters what they need.

That they are so keen for this version of the bill to pass tells you everything you need to know about its effectiveness.

No surprise that MPs are watering down the no-fault eviction ban, when 100+ of them are extracting £10,000s from renters.

If the Renters Bill does not properly protect our rights, we will continue to defend our members from evictions and fight until our human rights become law.

The Rwanda Bill has passed.

Refugees escaping unimaginable horrors will live with the constant fear of violent deportation.

Tories will fund this inhumanity with £100,000,000s of public money while threatening to cut benefits & denying us fair pay.

Cruelty is the point.

Tomorrow, MPs will debate the no-fault eviction ban for the first time in 6 months.

👎It's been 5 years since the Tories promised to end this cruel practice. But now they're rolling back on their promises.

💥 Don't let them! Take action & email your MP: londonrentersunion.org/renters-reform…

Rents are rising again. Faster than wages. Faster than inflation.

We already know what the solutions to this crisis are.

What we need is the mass power to force the government to put our human rights above profit.

The housing system is not broken. It is RIGGED in favour of those who profiteer off of our human right to a home.

Watch LRU's Siobhan speaking at Peace & Justice Project Event about how getting organised in our communities can win back wealth and power from landlords.

'Renters are living UNDER DURESS!'

Powerful words from Natasha - one of the many 100,000s of renters served with a cruel section 21 notice in the five years since the tories promised to abolish this exploitative practice.

It's time to stop the evictions.
