Labour 's new Renters' Rights Bill would scrap Section 21 orders which allow landlords to evict tenants without having to specify a reason in England .

Head of Renter's Reform Coalition said landlords warned the new housing minister there would be a wave of evictions' if Labour’s Renters’ Rights Bill came into effect on a fixed date.

He accused the landlords of threatening to make one last arbitrary eviction 'just to feel something'.

Average private rents are at the highest rates on record, with inflation at 5.4% currently.

Despite still meaning big increases for tenants, it’s the lowest level in three years .

It means that tenants are paying much more proportionally to rent than they were a decade ago .
