Against Landlords ft. Nick Bano
Cursed Objects Β· Episode
This @cursedobjectsuk.bsky.social⬠interview from Mar 24 w/ Nick Bano about his book Against Landlords is really interesting. It's about the housing crisis as one of affordability, not of supply. Also an interesting ref (given recent echos) to the Enoch Powell speech.
