Renters' rights deep dive with Alex Sobel MP

The private rented sector is broken and tenants across the UK have been waiting for the government to ban no-fault evictions. Labour MP Alex Sobel tabled the amendment that on top of this ban, would see landlords banned from charging tenants more than one months rent up front. He's also looking at loosening guarantor laws to help more people get into private rentals. This interview was originally recorded in January 2025.
