London's renters need support
The Prime Minister and the Mayor of London
Many renters have lost their jobs in the pandemic and one in five are struggling to pay their rent or already in arrears.
That’s why Sian Berry, a private renter herself, is calling on the Government and Mayor to protect every renter this winter.
Sian is calling for:
- A ban on evicting renters
- Rent freezes
- An increase in benefits to cover rents
- Rent forgiveness for those in debt

This pandemic is disproportionately hurting renters. We need more action from ministers, and support from our Mayor.
It's time to act. London's renters need:
- A long term eviction ban
- Rent controls to curb runaway private rents
- Housing benefit increased to cover rents, with no benefit cap
- Rent forgiveness - to take renters out of unfair debt
