It's not difficult to cap private rents. France did it years ago. It's illegal to evict tenants in winter and rents can only increase in-line with normal inflation at 2% per year. Furthermore why is Britain dependent on private landlords to provide housing? It's because the Tories introduced Right to Buy and haven't been building sufficient and safe social housing.

Labour have said that if you can prove you can pay rent, then you can prove you can pay a mortgage. A bit of help getting the deposit would also be welcome and perhaps on the cards. 4. Shitty landlords out for the grab deserve to be routed out of the sector 5.

She's a gift for labour

[@johndh958]

Labour don’t need a gift , they need a miracle

[@desperatefortuneproduction3296]

'Patronising' is way too mild a term for Kemi Badenough.

[@ru76224]

So Kemi is apparently the best the Conservatives have got..

[@MO-ss5mj]

100%

[@gotMylky]

LOL "this bill will not work, will fail" just after saying Labour copied their ideas? xD

[@BBoyDreamz]

Rinsed!? What are you talking about. She ran rings around every question. Refreshing to see a plain speaking MP articulating the subject matter well and being honest about things they got wrong. I think Labour will be in real trouble if Kemi wins.

Landlords selling housing doesn’t reduce housing supply if they’re selling it to people buying homes to live in them…

[@Enceladus007]

Kemi ❤❤❤

[@RichardFraser-y9t]

" You have taken our ideas and they are rubbish "

[@nerdydrew6818]

Nobody got rinsed 😂 the people opposing her only had talking points and a clear lack of understanding when it comes to how the market works

[@annenunney9907]

This woman has no right to criticise anyone she is useless

[@user-tt2qn1cj1x]

Liz Truss didn't make it past a lettuce as Prime Minister.

[@robbielad]

When did the Tory's start to worry about the less well off. 🤔

[@mattgodwin294]

What and Labour do?

[@moomin7461]

Never.

[@michaelpotts1322]

Maybe when they increased the tax threshold from £6k under Blair/Brown to £12750, helping the poorest the most. Maybe it was the free childcare places for working families or the reductions in national insurance or the furlough scheme that kept millions of low income families in jobs. Or the energy support scheme, triple lock for pensioners then the triple lock plus, free busses for over 65's, enhanced maternity/paternity benefits. All designed to help the working people of this country and encourage work. Don't believe all you read. Change for the worse with Labour.

That doggo is living its best life on the Commons floor. Almost as horizontal and sleepy in the chamber as Jacob Rees Mogg.

[@paris-panda]

Oh God, she is extremely tiring to listen to. She's been talking for 13 minutes so far and hasn't said a single thing. Few other politicians have the ability to speak so much and yet still manage to say so little.

[@chiccabay9911]

She is always very impressed with herself.

[@Para2normal]

Desperately protecting the rights of Landlords over Tenants

[@alexfielding8411]

They had 14 years to make renting more secure and affordable - they did the opposite and now oppose any attempt to rectify it...

[@simonperry8064]

We know the Conservative Party members love a strong, progressive woman as their leader, and with recent history fresh in their minds they have the chance to repeat that call. Go on, I dare you!

[@tonyatthebeach]

Much as I hate the Tories, KB is right. Untested over regulation by Labour is indeed going to impact various economic sectors resulting in fewer jobs and fewer available properties. Result....prices go up, exactly the opposite of the intended effect

[@oliverford5367]

When they do it with workers rights noone will hire. When they pass extra race equality companies will get rinsed for discrimination claims

[@realjimmydean]

The labour MP should be focusing on legislation rather than whether something is patronising, housing needs to be sorted
