The hypocritical former newspaper turned progressive cancel sheet has done it again:
A Sydney landlord put pressure on a single mother to leave her rental home after just nine months, eventually relisting the property at $300 more a week when the tenant’s lease expired.
Fiona*, who has two children, last year rented a two-bedroom apartment in Arncliffe for $690 a week through agency Century 21.
In April, three months before her lease was scheduled to end, she was called by her real estate agent and told the owner needed to move back in as they were experiencing financial difficulties. In desperation, Fiona offered an immediate $55 rent increase in an attempt to stay in the property when her lease expired, which was rejected. She was then told if she left her lease early, the owner would contribute to her “moving costs”.
Replace “Sydney landlord” with The Guardian newspaper, and we get closer to the truth.
This eviction, as well as all of the suffering of people pushed out of housing, is attributable to The Guardian’s cancel culture.
The Guardian refuses to discuss mass immigration, by far the most significant driver of tearaway rent inflation.
Instead, it runs around fretting about the direct, predictable and unending effects of its cause under the Jericho Rule:
Immigration – because there are many desperate to hate – must be treated with extreme care by politicians and journalists…The inherently racist parties will seek to use any discussion and any seeming evidence of the negative impact of migrants as fuel to burn their fires of hate.
But it’s OK to hate single mums and their kids while mocking them with coverage that pretends to care, which is appalling gaslighting.
It’s a moral failure and class war that precisely apes the Murdoch Press it purports to fight.
