Labour has blamed the increase on the failure of wages to keep up with rents

Soaring numbers of tenants are being turned out 
of their homes by bailiffs, Ministry of Justice 
statistics disclosed last night.
The surge in evictions was blamed by Labour on 
the failure of wages to keep pace with rent 
increases, as well as the introduction of the 
so-called “bedroom tax” last year.
County court bailiffs repossessed 41,195 
properties on behalf of landlords in the 12 months to September.
Labour, which released an analysis of the MoJ 
figures, said it estimated 90,000 people had been evicted over the period.
The total represented a 49 per cent increase on 
the 27,628 evictions over the same period four years earlier.
The MoJ figures, which relate to England and 
Wales, also showed 11,100 repossessions took 
place in July, August and September – the highest quarterly total on record.
The number of repossession claims issued by 
landlords has risen by 27 per cent over four years to more than 170,000.
Similar pressures are being felt in Scotland 
where the proportion of tenants in arrears rose 
last year from 6.3 per cent to 6.6 per cent.
Emma Reynolds, the shadow housing minister, said: 
“These figures lay bare the extent of the 
cost-of-living crisis across the country.”
But Brandon Lewis, the housing minister, said: 
“We have worked hard to increase the number of 
new homes, help people on to the property ladder 
and provide more affordable options for people who want to rent.”
He said rents had fallen in real terms each year 
since 2010, but ministers remained “determined to 
do all we can to create a bigger, better private rented sector”.

Fear not therefore: for there is nothing covered 
that shall not be revealed; and nothing hid that 
shall not be made known. What I tell you in 
darkness, that speak ye in the light and what ye 
hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. Matthew 10:26-27

Die Pride and Envie; Flesh, take the poor's advice.
Covetousnesse be gon: Come, Truth and Love arise.
Patience take the Crown; throw Anger out of dores:
Cast out Hypocrisie and Lust, which follows whores:
Then England sit in rest; Thy sorrows will have end;
Thy Sons will live in peace, and each will be a friend.
