This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government

Rejected petition Make it so Landlords and estate agents can’t refuse DSS.

It is wrong for landlords to refuse DSS because it discriminating for those who are single on benefits, unable to work or even those who just can’t afford rent!

No one should be refused a home just because they are on housing benefits.

More details

If landlords accepted DSS the houses wouldn’t be empty and they would be getting rent and not just having an empty property because they refuse to rent to someone who is on DSS.
