Good to see, but a shame that the plans only apply to new housing developments, and they're being very vague about anything after that. Seems to take an extremely long time to do anything on this issue despite the changes apparently having wide support

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Now scrap existing leases on private houses.
Far beyond time for this to be in the bin, I think there is one other country in the world that allows it. Hopefully the day will come when renters are placed on the same footing too, even if its clearly not going to be any time soon.
Also on Groves reforms just happening to include ways for landowners to undermine the entire system while superficially looking good, thats not some accident.
