My family is being evicted, I had to tell my kids we can't afford festive presents'
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"We were really hoping that this was somewhere where we could really be long-term, says Kristina. Somewhere to recover and heal from what happened to us. But instead, here we go again. The single mother-of-two has just received her second Section 21 eviction notice in less than two years. She and her boys must now say goodbye to another home by the end of February."
"From May, landlords will be banned from using the controversial power under Labour's new Renter's Rights Act. Until then, they can still administer these no-fault' notices to remove a tenant without reason at two months' notice. To be receiving one before Christmas as a single parent household, and to be telling your children I'm really sorry but there will be no presents this year' it's so scary, says Kristina, 51, from Muswell Hill, north London."
Quality, accessible reporting requires funding to send journalists to report on developing stories across issues such as reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech. The Independent avoids paywalls and relies on donations from those who can afford it to keep journalism free for all. A single mother in Muswell Hill, Kristina, has received a second Section 21 eviction notice in under two years and must leave by the end of February. Landlords will be prohibited from using the controversial power under Labour's new Renter's Rights Act from May, but no-fault notices remain valid until then, worsening immediate housing insecurity for tenants.
