Added on to this I was allowed to stay as long as I slept on floor on a very unsuitable bedding of cushions thrust together and less than 2 feet wide
pushed and pushed to get me out even ordered out within an hour after 10pm then realised I could not go as no taxis
Back to bad bed
again visits me during night to insist I leave following day
I went no transport
Went into cafe while my assistance dog outside under table on coat trying my best trying to get transport to next accommodation
Someone came past unclipped my dog, picked him up and tried to steal him
Rushed out Told me I was cruel and stupid and mad and told me disabled should not have dogs he is good with special needs children as well
Got dog back with much abuse. Now in accommodation Airbnb refunds take upto 15 days. They somehow expect you to cunjuour money from thin air.
So not good travelling due to disabiity harassment and abuse at home “I need to be raped and have my throat slit” and raising issue of Homelessness, Retaliatory Evictions and Disabled. Raised experience and issue of rogue landlords and abuse of vulnerable tenants got arrested for it

HANG ME FOR A LAWYER AS FOR A SHEEP
