A campaign group that fights for tenants' rights in the
private rented sector has released a renter's manifesto - and is now asking for
people's views and additional proposals. Generation Rent claims that PRS landlords
are currently failing too many of their tenants, while across the country
spiralling rents are leaving people more and more out of pocket. The protest
group also says that the PRS is characterised by "insecure, short-term
tenancies that mean lives can be disrupted with very little notice, forcing
people to become transient". Read the manifesto in full at 24dash.
