When will politicians ever listen to landlords?

Landlords' Concerns Ignored in Parliament

Watching Matthew Pennycook's performance in Parliament as he nodded through the Renters' Rights Bill, two striking points emerged: landlords are seemingly the only group that can be maligned without repercussions, and they were not adequately consulted during the bill's creation.

This lack of input means that landlords are facing legislation that will disrupt their businesses without having had a meaningful say in the matter. The depiction of landlords throughout the bill's progression has been alarming.

The housing minister claimed the bill is great for tenants and stated, "The current system for private renting is broken."

Landlords feel their concerns are being ignored, and they are being subjected to legislation that will significantly impact their businesses.

Author's summary: Politicians ignore landlords' concerns.
