Journalist Fraser Myers reacts to a bill being tabled today, where landlords will no longer be able to evict tenants without reason, but they will be handed more powers to remove antisocial ones.

Andy Burnham reacts to DEVASTATING Stourbridge fires as homes GUTTED: “Never seen anything like it”
Andy Burnham has visited families in Stourbridge after seeing the scenes of houses devastated by fires.
The Prime Minister outlined his plans to support those affected by the destruction, as he issued a temporary ban on the sale of disposable barbecue.
The ban comes into force today.
Speaking about the fires in Stourbridge, he said: “I’ve never seen anything like it. I mean, I dealt with wildfires in Greater Manchester, but nothing on this scale. I’ve never seen scenes like this in Britain, where you just see a whole house gutted, smouldering.
“And I met one of the families whose house had gone up in that in that way, so you can imagine how distressing that is for for them, and you feel for them and their kids, and not to go elsewhere.
“You know, it’s just unbelievably devastating for people in this in this position. So that’s why I’m here. I just wanted to show that, you know, we’re on the ground.
“We understand how difficult this is for everybody, and we will put in place the support to help people get back to where they should be as soon as possible.”

Mark Littlewood says “we now live in gaslit Britain” after it emerged the Home Office published a guide for illegal migrants on how “not to rape women”.
It is just one of the resources available in a collection titled: “Understanding behaviours and expectations in the UK: a guide for asylum seekers”.
Posters and information on rape, the age of consent and child abuse are among the guides to help asylum seekers “understand what is expected when living in the UK”.
The guidance highlights child rape is illegal “even if they look older” or if “it is allowed in another country”.
Speaking to Patrick Christys on GB News, political commentator Mark Littlewood said: “This pamphlet is extraordinary. And the reason I find it so extraordinary and disturbing is if you need that pamphlet, I don’t want you anywhere near my country.”
A Home Office spokesperson told GB News: “We expect everyone who comes to the UK to abide by our laws.
“If they do not, they will face consequences, including the refusal of their asylum claim and removal from the UK.
“Returns of failed asylum seekers have reached their highest level since 2010 under this Government.”

Tiffany Marie Brannon has urged Britain to introduce a burqa ban after Portugal did so.
Portugal has banned face-coverings in public in a measure widely seen as a “burka law” targeting Muslim women.
President António José Seguro signed into law a bill that originated with the hard right-wing Chega party.
The policy was adopted by Lisbon in July with votes from the right-wing governing coalition and the hard right, while left-wing parties voted against it.
Speaking on The Late Show Live on GB News, Tiffany Marie Brannon argued that the issue raises wider questions about integration, cultural identity and the role of religious dress in British public life, as the debate over face coverings continues to divide opinion.

Landlords are already selling up and getting out, which is going to make life more difficult for renters. Is this another strand of the globalist agenda "you will own nothing and be happy" (the banks are buying up loads of property, I wonder why).

The biggest problem in the UK that all these people gloss over is that too many homes are not owned, they are rented out by multiple property owners. A change in the tax laws should be made to make it less attractive to own and rent out multiple homes. There is a shortage of housing because individuals own too many properties. It is a useless industry that provides the UK with nothing to export. It only serves to make wealthier people richer and poor people poorer. Sadly the individuals in government that need to make change are the multiple property owners. The housing market in the UK is fox and rabbit affair and as we are seeing again a collapse has happened every 15 or so years because of this. It does not promote a stable strong economy.

Best way to put landlords out of business is to make council housing available. Deposits are going to be big now due to the risk. Be interesting to see how the do gooders respond if the availability of private rentals is significantly diminished. You guys gonna provide affordable housing then? Nope, didn't think so, it wouldn't make you enough dollar.

This man stating immigration isnt the problem because if we stopped it today we still wouldnt have enough houses for the people.
THERE IS TOO MANY PEOPLE HERE ON THIS TINY ISLAND!!!!
we dont need more housing estates where the houses are built so slim and small compared to past builds its a disgrace. We are on of the most nature-less lacking in greenery countries in the world and this div wants to build more high rises/flats and poorly designed new build estates.
@Cosmic-Wanderer
January 23, 2024 at 4:38 pm
This is a cheap trick to get more landlords to have the outlook of “if i just sell this house to the council/housing/government. I wont have to deal with all these problems.
They are effectively pushing the narrative of “you will own nothing and be happy”
Dangerous times we live in

Real Estate is Bussiness not Charity
For everyone moaning at landlords you do realise were screwed like this because the government hasnt hit 1 target for building new homes in a decade if anyone needs to have a go at anyone, everyone should protest about not having enough housing isntead of feeling like they have rights to someone elses property that they could of spent there whole life working up to but yet its easier to blame the landlord and another thing before the landlord lets you move in, you couldnt give 2 shits about that landlord. hell no. no one does but then the landlord has to give a shit about you and the fact you might become homeless

As for Starmer building on the green belt, there are plenty of brown belt areas that need cleaning up, there are lots of empty mills that can be repurposed or in some cases demolished.
I live in a semi rural area, but all around me green fields are disappearing, usually for pricey private housing, with a few social houses thrown in just so they can get the planning passed. There are a lot of places round here that are old factory sites, mills & simply infill areas they could use first, but I suppose these areas might not be quite as saleable & at the end of the day, builders only build where they can get the best prices. Maybe councils themselves should start building more social housing & not sell it off again. Oh & buy the way regardless of how many extra housing estates they’ve shoved in round here, there have been no extra schools or doctors & the hospitals seem to get downsized & outsourced.

Socialism creeping into the Conservatives, they really have lost their way, the current system works and creates both profits and tax revenues. Being a landlord is about making a profit and maximising your return.Why is GB NEWS 1. Not slating these reforms and 2. Mentioning Labour, they have done enough damage to our country already, we certainly don't want them in power again.
@phil1898
January 23, 2024 at 4:38 pm
They say landlords will be handed more 'powers' to evict antisocial tenants but how long will that take? Ban 'no fault' evictions and most private landlords will walk away. It won't be worth the hassle of having to go through endless court battles to get rid of people trashing their property.

I write from Dublin and we have legislation surrounding landlords selling their rental properties; however, it's pretty useless. Landlords in Ireland simply say that they are planning to sell up, or that they need to move a family member into the property. These excuses are rarely, if ever, verified and even when found to be fraudulent, little is done by the authorities. Only the imposition of heavy fines and sanctions can control such behaviour by landlords. Personally, I have never met an honest landlord!

My daughter is a private rental, been living in the home for 13yrs, her landlord gave her a eviction notice for her to vacate time limit two months. She has never been anti social, never behind in her rent, doesn’t use the home for illegal activities. She is worried sick,she has gone to council they say it could take up to four yrs or more, to get a home. She works hard, keeps the home clean and tidy, but since she moved in,her landlord has used the back garden to store rubbish. She has never been able to use garden, or allow her children to play out there. We are so worried about her, she has two sons living with her, one working the other in college. She was in tears on the phone last night, and we had no idea how we could help her, we only live in a one bed bungalow, so no room for them here.

It is the immigrants. The reason why we don't have enough houses is due to immigration. Ship a million people into the country in a year and there is bound to be a problem. Same reason no school, doctor or hospital places. Both main parties are the same, they don't give a toss about the people of this country and they never have done. The idiots, sorry, the electorate will keep voting these liars and charlatans into power.
