propertytalk Live! - Great British Property Scandal launches

Channel 4 has launched The Great British Property Scandal, a season of special programmes to investigate the housing crisis and consider possible solutions.

The season started on Monday 5 December when broadcaster and journalist Jon Snow continues his investigation into the reality of life for people who live in the private rented sector, in Dispatches: Landlords from Hell.

Campbell Robb, Shelter’s Chief Executive, said: ‘Dispatches: Landlords from Hell further exposes the reality that rogue landlords are out there and they’re getting away with it.

‘Every day at Shelter we see the devastating impact these landlords have on peoples’ lives as families remain trapped in homes that cause misery and, in some cases, put lives at risk.

‘What’s more we believe thousands more families could suffer as changes in the Localism Act will see councils placing more vulnerable homeless households in private rented housing.
