Landlord directs tenants to food banks following £1,000 rent hike

The UK's restrictions on evictions have expired 11 months ago, and always had exclusions for serious non-payment.

The current issue is that tenants simply do not have the fucking money because of soaring energy prices/Cost-of-Living.

Landlords can evict all they want but that doesn't fix the state of the economy.

especially for landlords who own 1-2 units.

You're kind of missing the problem there.

It's precisely the "small innocent landlord with 2 buy-to-let properties" who shouldn't be bailed out.

A common refrain from landlords whenever issues of non-payment or rent-controls surface in the public discourse is, "but without tenants/high rents I can't afford the mortgage".

The logical flaw in that being THE TENANT SHOULD NOT BE THE ONE PAYING THE MORTGAGE WITH THEIR RENT PAYMENTS; THE LANDLORD SHOULD BE PAYING FOR THE MORTGAGE FROM THEIR OWN FUNDS.

(And any landlord who wants to speak up, first promise you will hand over the equity of the mortgage to the tenant who is paying it, or sit the fuck back down and keep quiet.)

If you default on a rental property's mortgage because there's no tenant, you did not deserve that property and should be forced to sell it.
