Criticise Labour for apparent big mistakes but the new government seems to be doing right by us on the small stuff.

And it’s pretty good! Here’s the Mirror:
MPs are set to vote through Labour’s Renters Rights bill on Tuesday, banning no-fault evictions and demanding landlords fix serious health hazards like damp and mould.
But more measures are also expected to be added to the bill in the Commons, including one preventing guarantors of tenants who have died being chased for excessive amounts of future rent.
Heartless landlords will be barred from pursuing grieving friends and relatives of tenants who have died for thousands of pounds in rent, in a new boost for renters rights.
