William Pedley, a Green party candidate in North Northamptonshire, is serving a no-fault eviction notice to his Labour opponent Kelly Duddridge, raising accusations of hypocrisy. Duddridge, who has lived in the house for ten years, is distressed by the threat of eviction. While the Greens support abolishing no-fault evictions, Pedley claims he needs the property for personal reasons. This situation has drawn criticism, especially from Labour, highlighting contradictions in the Green party's stance on tenant rights amid broader political debates on rental laws.
"Duddridge remains in the property but says the threat of eviction has caused her and her family significant stress, while Labour has accused Pedley of hypocrisy given his party's opposition to no-fault evictions."
"A Labour spokesperson said: This is yet more rank hypocrisy from the Green party. Threatening to evict a tenant via no-fault eviction while standing on a platform to abolish section 21 simply beggars belief."
