Labour’s housing hypocrisy: councils serve almost 200 households with no-fault eviction notices

Exclusive: firms run by five of the party’s councils have used legal loophole to serve section 21 notices

The Guardian
“And, while it was regarded as pretty good evidence of criminality to be living in a slum, for some reason owning a whole street of them merely got you invited to the very best social occasions.”
Terry Pratchett; Feet of Clay

I've been fighting (and mostly losing) against severe #ADHD Functional Freeze, where task initiation has become extremely difficult.

It's stress related. I have a lot going on, but most acutely my landlords said they wanted their house back and issued a #Section21 #NoFaultEviction. I had a contract until March, but if you are a UK renter they can do this to you at any time with 2mo notice.

It's incredibly unsettling. #Section21 can get in the sea. Hopefully Labour will do something soon.
