Renters fall victim to Sunak's snap election decision
RENTERS have fallen victim to Rishi Sunak’s snap election decision, as the Bill offering them some protection against eviction was dropped by the government.
Tenants’ campaigners slammed the move, having already hit out at Tory dilution of the law, which delayed its implementation until the courts were ready.
Ben Twomey of Generation Rent said that abandoning the Renters (Reform) Bill as parliament dissolves means the government has ”failed in its promise to renters at the last election to deliver a fairer tenancy system.”
