I’m sure we all agree with Caroline Lucas that fundamental changes are required in the private rented sector and her Private Members Bill is to be broadly welcomed (the Argus, July 15.) However, close inspection of her Bill reveals that many of her ideas are an almost direct lift of Ed Miliband’s plans for housing reform that were launched on April 30.
In reality, the chances of Dr Lucas’s Bill becoming law are very slim.
The only way to effect fair any fundamental social and economic change is to vote Labour on May 7, 2015.
Julie Cattell, Labour Party Candidate, Preston Park Ward
