Of courses 1000s would be evicted. Landlords haven’t been able to sell their properties. Everyone knew at the end of it, this was on the cards. Journo being a bit naive not thinking this would happen and just stirring shite.
The public knew thousands would face eviction, we did not need the stats weeks later to figure it out,
I don’t understand all the shock and outrage about the government lifting the eviction ban. Those tenancies were inevitably going to be terminated whenever the ban was lifted, so what did people expect? It’s not like the government could have left the ban in place forever, and they aren’t the ones terminating the tenancies. Really it should read “Eviction ban gives thousands of tenants additional weeks or months to try to find alternative accommodation…” The government certainly deserves admonishment for their lack of action on the whole housing crisis in general, but all this moaning about the temporary eviction ban ending is just silly; that was never going to be a long-term thing.
Most people are sitting cushy in their bungalows and semiD’s. None of them care.

Would it be better if we just evicted them earlier then rather than delaying it?
The whole point was to temporarily ban evictions… anyone who is getting evicted now would’ve been evicted earlier anyway. They were just given more time to sort their situation out. It’s up to them what they do with that time.
We know we were there, so were they.
What is the point of this article other than to set us back a few weeks in public discourse?
What is with this fucked up phrase “notice to quit”, has that ever been used before to describe evictions or being fired? You’d have to be a real piece of shit to talk speak like that.
