It's illegal for landlords to refuse rent because someone has a child
My wife and I are expecting a baby in April and we have been trying to find a 2 bedroom flat. However because we are expecting a child all landlords have refused.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
It's already against the law to discriminate against someone because they are pregnant or have recently given birth. We're therefore not exactly sure what further action you want the Government and Parliament to take.
