Renters have told us they think this version of the #RentersReformBill is blowing it, so we put their quotes on vans and drove them around #Westminster for every politician to see.

The current version of the Bill will not protect renters. It's time for a complete overhaul.

Even if you do not have an address, you can still open a bank account.

Most banks offer a ‘basic’ account – which needs less documents than a current account. You can usually use a temporary address if you need to give one.

Children are growing up in temporary accommodation, and people are being pushed into #homelessness by insecure and overpriced housing every single day 👇🏼.

It's time for all political parties to commit to the long-term solutions; investing in social homes and fixing renting.

ADVICE: If you claim benefits, the DWP can loan you money for things like a fridge if yours breaks. But you have to repay them.

Yesterday the remaining stages of the #RentersReformBill in the House of Commons cemented a version of the bill that is a betrayal of renters. Today Housing Minister Jacob Young is meeting with landlords yet again. We have questions...

Converting empty homes into social rent homes:

✅ Quicker than building a home from scratch
✅ Cheaper
✅ Greener

Converting empty homes alone won't end the housing emergency. But it'd kickstart the delivery of social homes we desperately need: shltr.org.uk/PflVV

'The Bill has been watered down so much and instead of making improvements to the Bill, the government have sought to weaken it.'

📻 Listen to Shelter's Policy Manager Tarun Bhakta on why we've withdrawn support for the #RentersReformBill . From 2:19:00. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

The #RentersReformBill , as the name suggests, promised to give renters the rights they deserve.

Instead, it's been watered down so much that we can't support it unless it's overhauled.

📢 It's time to listen to renters for a RENTERS bill - not landlords.

🔴 RENTERS REFORM BILL UPDATE 🔴

Following the Third Reading of the #RentersReformBill it's become clear Shelter cannot support this version of the Bill.

Renters have campaigned tirelessly for a Bill that will genuinely protect them. This Bill is not it.

500 renters are given a section 21 no-fault eviction every day. Genuine change is desperately needed.

Yet thanks to self-interested landlord MPs this version of the #RentersReformBill , which has it's Third Reading today, will fail to protect them.
