Residents reveal the ‘bleak’ reality of living inside iconic London attraction

My mum and step dad are going away 8-12th June, and said she won’t be able to help with moving that week. We can’t get keys on weekends. She told me to tell the letting agents I’m ready from the 15th.

I really don’t want to piss off the landlord, who is already fed up with the delays. I can get my stuff moved with an extra person for £50. But it’s things like cleaning and fixing a few things, so I get my deposit back.

Plus the longer I wait, less money I get back from days not lived here, which messes up my finances.

I don’t know what to do.

Australia’s property lobby would have us believe investors are selfless public servants. It’s just profiteering | Maiy Azize
By Maiy Azize

Labor is right to wind back a system where taxpayers spend billions lining the pockets of those who treat housing like an asset class, not a basic need
