Stop The New Pay to Stay Rent Scheme
To stop the go ahead of a new rent scheme aimed at all social housing earning a household income of £30'000+ having to pay local market competitve rates of rent in order to stay as a tenant.
Why is this important?
Because this is forcing low income families to fight to keep their homes as based on household rents this could mean two earners of 15'000 each that equal to the threshhold put in place and therefore could see them homeless or being desperately forced out of london away from their income and their childrens schools.
Imagine being a low or even middle income family on social housing living within an area like hoxton or islington and being forced to pay local rents that could mean one whole salary spent on just rent before any other bills such as council tax / elec/ gas etc!!!!
