Default Labour MP (newly-elected) rents out flats with black mould


Jas Athwal, Labour MP Ilford South


[A Labour MP rents out flats with
black mould and ant infestations,
the BBC has discovered.
Jas Athwal, the newly-elected MP
for Ilford South, owns 15 rental flats,
making him the biggest landlord in
the House of Commons.


In one block of seven flats owned
by Mr Athwal nearly half the
tenants said they had
to regularly clean their
bathroom ceilings to remove mould.

Mr Athwal has now also admitted
his flats do not have the correct
property licences required under
a scheme he introduced as
Redbridge Council leader.

He had earlier claimed to the
BBC that he had complied
with the rules.

Mr Athwal said he was "shocked"
and "profoundly sorry" to hear
of residents' issues,
which he had not been aware of due
to the properties being managed by
an agency, and promised repairs
and maintenance will be
completed "swiftly".]

well well, he used to be the leader of the council where I lived, he made a big thing about driving to Poland with a lorry load of goods for Ukraine when the war started, maybe he should have started his good deeds at home, by following the rules he implemented and treating his tenants better

Mould on bathroom ceilings is common if you don’t open the windows.
Same as kitchens, or if you dry clothes indoors.
Perhaps the tenants need educating on this subject, or maybe he is indeed a slum landlord.
