Our housing and rental laws are almost exclusively written by landlords and property developers. With “no fault evictions” you literally can’t even withhold rent for major disrepair. I mean, you can in theory but the work around makes it useless. New-builds here are far worse than the housing stock made immediately after WW2, due to the appalling standards they’re allowed to build to. You just have to hope its not been covered in illegal, ultra flammable cladding that the developers don’t have to pay to fix.
