Scottish poll shows huge majority for rent controls
THREE QUARTERS of Scots support the introduction of rent controls – including 85 per cent of SNP supporters.
Polling published last night also showed that 45 per cent of Scottish adults would be more likely to support a candidate for election who backed limits on rental prices.
The survey by Survation, commissioned by tenants’ union Living Rent, found that only 11 per cent would be less likely to support a candidate in favour of rent controls.
