Women to Lead Housing Bill Counterattack
TUC pledges national demonstration support after hearing sex-for-rent and eviction atrocities
WOMEN vowed yesterday to be at the forefront of the fightback against the Tories’ “pernicious” Housing and Planning Bill, ahead of Sunday’s thousands-strong national demonstration.
The pledge was made as all unions present at the TUC Women’s Conference gave their passionate support to a motion to fight the Bill.
GMB delegate Rebecca Winson shared repulsive stories of women bribed to perform sex acts in return for lower rent and other atrocities.
