The Independent emphasizes its role in delivering critical, accessible journalism on pressing matters like reproductive rights and housing reforms. As massive rent increases threaten millions of renters, new polling by the Renters' Reform Coalition reveals that a rise of 110% could force two-thirds of renters to relocate. While Labour's upcoming Renters' Rights Bill aims to abolish no-fault evictions and control rent hikes, critics argue it may not sufficiently protect tenants from excessive increases, prompting concerns about the adequacy of legal safeguards against homelessness.
"The Independent's commitment to accessible journalism ensures that quality reporting is available to everyone, funded by those who can afford it, rather than through paywalls."
"Research shows that over two-thirds of renters, facing a potential 110% rent increase, might have to move, highlighting urgent issues ahead of Labour's Renters' Rights Bill."
