Fergal, London

I have worked for several years for six different London environmental health departments and one of the main issues is excess cold. It is the single biggest killer in the home and is responsible for thousand of deaths a year. I have personally served legal notices against greedy or indifferent landlords where vulnerable people are living in appalling cold conditions.

It is relatively simple problem to eradicated and will help the fight against climate change. Providing rental accommodation is a business and landlords should have a responsibility to provide clean, safe warm properties.

Please sign up to this and help improve minimum rental standards in the UK.
