Is Labour breaking its election promise to private renters?

Bread and circuses 2: The Tories are planning to evict ‘disruptive’ tenants

The Tories are planning to evict ‘disruptive’ tenants with another ‘bread and circuses’ policy designed to distract us from our own misery by diverting our attention onto someone else’s.

Rishi Sunak has also promised a new law to evict repeat offenders from social housing after three verified instances of anti-social behaviour – like noise disturbance, vandalism, and other forms of harassment.

On the face of it, this may seem like a good idea to improve neighbourhood safety – but isn’t it just another “bread and circuses” distraction tactic?

Instead of focusing on policies that will improve all our lives, the Tories want to attack a minority of people, to make the rest of us feel better about ourselves.

No matter how much that minority may deserve a clampdown, there are better things for our politicians to be discussing.

Instead, they’re wasting our time.
