The charity says the government must build more social homes to tackle rising rents and provide people with a long-term alternative to costly private renting. Have they at last seen the light??? So get on an harass the government then,...

but isn't this part of the plan? Fine and prosecute private landlords for things that have never been properly rolled out. Passing legislation is one thing, but if it is really about 'raising standards, blah, blah' , then a full...
