Rent-striking students win £100k over dire halls
UNIVERSITY students who staged a seven-month rent strike over “unbearable” conditions in their halls of residence have been awarded nearly £100,000.
Each of the 87 students living in University College London’s (UCL) Campbell House West were given a full term’s rent rebate of £1,368.
Students repeatedly complained last year about noise and dust pollution from works on the building, a rodent infestation and unsanitary conditions to no avail.
