Like many right hon. and hon. Members across the House, I am fortunate to be a homeowner. As representatives, however, we should be acutely aware of the unaffordability of rents in south London, Greater Manchester and, of course, my home city of Liverpool and my constituency of Liverpool Wavertree. Sadly, aside from those right hon. and hon. Members with adult children, there is an ignorance among the homeowners in this place, who simply do not understand what it is to face life at the sharp end of the private rented sector.
