Meanwhile, all three of the #Brattleboro delegation to the #VTHouse voted to pass H.772, a bill that eviscerates tenant protections in #Vermont, which are meager eough as they stand. H.772 is a huge giveaway to #landlords.

I am extremely disappointed in Ian Goodnow (Windham-9), Molly Burke (Windham-8), and Emilie Kornheiser (Windham-7), today.

This past weekend, Rep. Burke announced her retirement. She will not seek re-election this November.

My new favourite hobby is joining Facebook groups advertising apartments for rent in Brussels and bullying landlords who demand extortionate rents for studio apartments.

#Prosfygika - one of the largest squatted communities in Europe - means 'refugee homes' in Greek; a stronghold of #partisan resistance in the December 1944 uprising, which left the blocks scarred by bullet holes.

Interview with Housing activist Jordan van den Lamb anti-landlord “influencer”
Australian Capitalism and its parliamentary wing of landlords despises van den Lamb. He outrages conservative radio hosts and has even earned the ire of Labor Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who owns multiple investment properties, and who publicly branded van den Lamb “a disgrace.”

Australia Has a Serious Landlord Problem

Montreal landlords under fire for rent increases as high as 20% in Park Ex
Ali Kamruzzaman has lived in the same Montreal apartment for 28 years with his wife. He was disheartened when his new landlord demanded $150 more per month in rent. Kamruzzaman was able to negotiate a lower rate, but he's far from the only one seeing a massive jump in rent.

People living in vehicles forced to choose between fuel and food

The high cost of fuel is making it even more difficult for people living in their cars to afford food, electricity and transport.

This was inevitable. Renters being thrown out. Can someone who knew more than I explain why an immediate break/review clause could not be part of the legislation in England? I know many MPs are landlords but it can’t be that simple can it - giving them a head start to make more money?
