        .@ThangamMP says current provisions are "woefully inadequate". "Unless the government acts now, many thousands of tenants will be at risk of losing their homes”.

        the issue is not so much about an extension but whether tenants with arrears will end up paying back their landlords. Not all will and then who will cover landlords losses? Exactly.

        I guess that's the risk of relying on having someone else's income to live off.

        Pleased to see Sir Forensic Haircut appealing to his base by protecting the landlords.

        so people are going to have to pay back double rent within two years, when for some it's over 50% of their (now zero) income already?

        Labour back to ineffective tinkering around the edges again. *sigh*
