Reply to the comment left by Stephen Johnson at 15/12/2021 - 20:37Not to be rude, but of course the NRLA would be lobbying on behalf of landlords and saying the balance isn't quite right right now. Being shunted between temporary...
But it is in the UDHR, to which the UK is a signatory. One of the main reasons it isn't in any UK human rights (along with some other UDHR rights), is that the government argues it has already met...

Has it actually caused any damage, or are you just hypothesising? Your tenancy agreement already holds tenants responsible for damage caused presumably? So all you'd be banning is "storing a bike without causing any damage", which appears to be a...
Some good advice from the other commenters, just wanted to point out that the UK law is actually massively on the landlords side compared to the rest of Europe. A general suggestion, if you put more time into empathising and...
