Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 April 2025

Debate

Renters’ Rights Bill

Contribution

On the amendment from the noble Lord, Lord Cromwell, it is really irritating that he is always so reasoned and reasonable—and even mildly persuasive. But I am instinctively against it. I am reminded of something that a very reputable estate agent once said to me: “Dorothy, every property is saleable; it all depends on the price”. So please do not tell me that somebody could not put their house up for several months at a much higher price than might be expected in order to try to meet that. But, because the amendment was mildly persuasive, I will be very interested to listen to what the noble Baroness has to say on that matter.
