Renters Manifesto demands ambitious public housing targets and urgent reforms
Private renters from across England gather in Old Palace Yard, Westminster, for the Renters Day of Action, demanding urgent reform to protect renters as they warn that each day of delay could see another household forced onto the streets, March 21, 2023

TENANT rights organisations have joined forces to warn political parties that their home-building plans will not fix the housing crisis without ambitious public housing targets and urgent reforms.

Generation Rent, New Economic Foundation, Acorn, London Renters Union and Greater Manchester Tenants Union launched their Renter’s Manifesto today.

The manifesto proposes improvements to private renting, including rent controls, an end to no-fault evictions, open-ended tenancies, tougher action on landlords who leave homes unsafe and in disrepair, tenancy reforms and bringing privately owned homes into public ownership.
