Petition Stop discrimination of DSS renting a house

More details

I am sick of being continually discriminated against because i have pets & due to long term illness have to claim Employment & Support Allowance because i can only work part time.
I want to start this petition to gain support for everybody wanting to privately rent but have either pets or have to claim benefits or both & have constant problems finding a Landlord who'll rent to them without discriminating before they meet them.
it's against the law to discriminate against different races & certain groups of people, so why is it ok to do that to us?
i want the Government to stop Landlords from refusing a tenant on the grounds of pets or benefits & force equality because not everybody's pets are dirty & not everybody claims benefits because of want but mostly
through a certain need like sickness or low income.
