What happens when the Govt. Under Secretary for Homelessness & Rough Sleeping is herself a landlord?
Well, the answer is she continues to act as a Landlord; serving notice on tenants that a lease would not be renewed so that the rent could be raised & the property re-listed.... now this is not an uncommon tactic, but its also what is stoking rent inflation (and therefore indirectly homelessness).
The problem with our political class in a nutshell; hypocrisy!

@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us What's the proportion of MPs who are landlords, compared with the general public?
Here in Ireland it's one thieving landlord bastard in six TDs, compared with about one in fifty of the general population.
