Rent campaigners block bailiffs from evicting disabled man from home

LONDON Renters Union (LRU) campaigners prevented bailiffs from evicting a woman and her disabled husband from their home in Ilford today as they took a stand against Section 21 no-fault evictions.

Around 50 activists picketed multiple entrances to their block of flats in east London for over seven hours, ensuring that no bailiffs or police could enter the building.

Zubaida and her husband, who never missed a rent payment, only found out about the planned eviction two weeks ago, the union said.
