Zusammenfassung: | "Award-winning journalist Vicky Spratt traces decades of bad decisions to show how the British dream of secure housing for all has withered. This fierce and moving account tells the stories of those on the frontline, illuminating the ways this national emergency cuts across the country, where the safety net of social housing has unravelled in exchange for profit, and communities have been devastated beyond recognition. Everybody deserves the chance of a safe and stable home, and this urgent, ground-breaking book leads the way." Tony has rented his whole life, and instead of enjoying retirement is facing eviction; Limarra isn't 'homeless enough' to get help from the council; Nicola is living in a mould-infested former care home; and for Kelly and her asthmatic son Morgan, another new rented house is a matter of life and death. This is twenty-first century Britain, where millions of people are forced into the private rental sector - a sector designed to create profit for landlords, not safe and stable homes for tenants. In this fierce and moving account, Vicky Spratt traces decades of bad decisions to show how and why the British dream of homeownership has withered and the safety net of social housing has been broken. Its effects are illuminated through the lives and everyday struggles of those stuck in the modern renting trap. From gentrification to homelessness, poor conditions to constant insecurity, this crisis is shaping our mental and physical health, our communities, safety and political landscape. But Vicky also reveals the urgent, radical steps needed to give everyone the chance of a good home |
