All That Is My Apartment Melts Into Air feat. Vicky Spratt

This week, we’re speaking with Vicky Spratt (@Victoria_Spratt) of the I Paper about her new book Tenants: The People on the Frontline of Britain’s Housing Emergency. Why has Britain regressed so badly on housing conditions? Is anyone with any political power aiming to fix this? The answer will probably not surprise you.

do UK MP's read their constituents letters? Seems unlikely that could make any difference unless you include a 10,000 pound check

My partner's father gets replies to his letters, but he lives in a Lib Dem / Tory marginal constituency.
