Скачать или смотреть Should the UK bring back rent controls?

Thatcher’s deregulation turned homes into speculative assets, and tenants into disposable people. It’s time for a change. In this video, I explain why rent poverty is central to our inequality crisis — and why Britain urgently needs a new Rent Act.
