Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 April 2025

Debate

Renters’ Rights Bill

Contribution

Many of the arguments I have made will be deeply familiar to noble Lords on the Benches opposite, the Opposition having made them here many times. We heard a bit about damascene conversions earlier, and it is deeply regrettable that we seem to have a reverse damascene conversion here, and now opposition to the abolition of Section 21. I need not remind the Opposition Benches that this policy was first proposed in 2019 and, indeed, endured through four Conservative Prime Ministers. This Government will stand firm. Section 21 has loomed over tenants for far too long and we will be the ones to finally abolish it.
