What the petition asks
Privately rented tenancys are increasingly 24 months with a 'no get out' clause resulting in massive financial loss and stress to private renters. Regardless of reason, be it issues with the property or change in personal circumstances, the right to move must protect human rights.
I have support from the housing charity 'Shelter' and facts and alarming figures of private renters in need.
