Episode 4. TAKE BACK (RENT) CONTROL: All Power to the Tenants!

Hello! In episode 4 we take on the challenge of keeping home rental affordable. Easy task right? Our guests Emmanuelle Cosse, former French housing minister, and Greg Beales from Shelter bring their expertise to the table and we called Grace and asked her about what it's like to have lived in a rent controlled home for over 30 years. We also discuss "CRUMBS!", retro labelers, and pencil rubbers in the ears.  AND Comedian Suzi Ruffell brings joy to the world by pretending to be an assistant stage director, she tells us why kids should be banned from Disneyland and wants everyone to have to "come out" to their parents    FURTHER READINGA blog from Generation Rent on rent controlsIPPR ReportResolution Foundation ReportShelter CONTACT USEmail us on - reasons@cheerfulpodcast.comLike us on FacebookFollow us on twitterLeave us a voicemail on skype - search for "Cheerful Podcast" CONTACT OUR GUESTSEmmanuelle Cosse on TwitterGreg Beales on TwitterSuzi Ruffell on Twitter Hosted on Acast.
