Make 'no fault' evictions illegal now

Closed 247 signatures

What the petition asks

This petition is to ask the Government to make 'no fault' Section 21 evictions illegal immediately, so that tenants cannot be evicted and potentially made homeless through no fault of their own.
Over the last few years the number of 'no fault' evictions has been skyrocketing and is a major cause of public concern. The UK economy is currently being hit by a cost of living crisis, huge inflation on rents and bills, and a major housing shortage. Millions of people cannot afford to buy a home and rely on renting properties. Now is the time to make 'no fault' evictions illegal - end this misery now.
