Sign the petition to stop Landlords ripping Students off accomodation

I suspect there will be force majeure clauses in future contracts to cover pandemics. Doesn’t help now though.
 
You generally have to sign up for a student house at the earliest in November, or at the latest roughly February. After that, there is hardly anything available or it is extortionately expensive. So the vast majority of students will have signed up for the next academic year before this whole situation occurred. Not saying I agree with compensation.

Exactly the point I was thinking. Most, or at the very least a helluva lot, of 20/21 lets will have been signed for before Xmas.
 
My landlord had houses around South Manchester and would say student renting had its ups and downs. For most, it’s their first experience of living away from home and they’re just not prepared for it. Mixed feelings on this one.
 
If you don’t like it move somewhere cheaper, that’s what’s called a market.
 
The far right fascists took the first page, but the rabid looney left are coming back into it in page 2 and 3.
 
I had students next door for 10 years when I lived in Fallowfield. Had problems a total of once in that time and the student in question was very apologetic the following day when he’d sobered up. If you had constant problems with them it’s probably more to do with you than them.

Oh dear, they drove my parents out of our family home of over 60 + years. When the elderly neighbour next door passed away the students moved in. Over the years they would party all through the night, light fires in the back yard in the middle of the night, urinate in the back entry, shoot at the family cat with a pellet gun... need I go on. You my friend have been very lucky. I doubt most parents of these students haven't got a fucking clue what there little darlings are getting up to...
