Rejected petition Immigrant Housing Issues

More details

Most of us would agree that true refugees should be housed, but at what cost?

I call on all people to stand up against two things:

1) Refugees having an option on housing and where they live
2) High rent prices from landlords, who effectively get their mortgage paid off by the taxpayer. The Government must cap the rental prices per region and also prevent a family turning down a perfectly good property for reasons such as 'I want to be closer to my friends'.
