How is a Car Engine linked to the Renters’ Rights Bill?
The photo below is of an engine - not to sure what kind, but it's purpose is to serve as an analogy for what is happening in the private rented sector.
An engine is a sophisticated piece of equipment and if well maintained, regularly inspected, warning lights or odd noises addressed and serviced by a professional, will serve its purpose for a long time.
Before an excellent mechanic takes an engine apart, they will know exactly what it takes to research and plan out the engine rebuild.
Renters’ Rights Bill - Consideration of Commons amendments - HOL -14th October 2025
There we have it. The expectations may have been high, and the outcome disappointing, but the ‘Ping Pong’ stage of the Renters’ Rights Bill will not last very long, in fact, the likelihood is that the Bill will not find it’s way back to the House of Lords again.
The proposed amendments, some of which were extremely significant - restrictions on advanced rent payments, some protection for landlords who consent to tenants having a pet, the quality of rented property for MOD personnel, preventing relet for a 12 month period under Ground 1A should a rented property fail to sell - and some relevant points were put forward in favour, but did not have a significant impact on the Bill.

Breaking News - Government announces Major Home Buying Overhaul
PRESS RELEASE
Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government and The Rt Hon Steve Reed OBE MP
Hundreds of thousands of first-time buyers are set to save £710 on average when buying a home, along with vital time and energy, thanks to the biggest shakeup to the homebuying system in this country’s history.
Proposals unveiled by the government on Monday 6 October will speed up the long-drawn out and costly process of buying a home by four weeks, saving people money and unnecessary stress, alongside wider reforms to rewire a chaotic system which has become a barrier to homeownership.
It will see sellers and estate agents required under the plans to provide buyers with vital information about a property upfront, including the condition of the home, leasehold costs, and chains of people waiting to move. This will help end nasty surprises which result in last-minute collapses and give greater confidence to first-time buyers making one of life’s most important decisions.
