Iris Duane: “This is against the wishes of that boy's family, they're already grieving, which is horrific.”

A lot has changed since 2017. The lack of joined-up thinking towards where we build PBSAs and who they are for is tearing apart local communities.

Housing is meant to be for people, not absurd profits whilst regular families are struggling to get a good home.

International student numbers are continuing to fall. It is hard to see the justification for continuing to build more and more PBSAs when existing ones are not at capacity.

When speaking to students, they often feel as though their PBSAs were not good value for money, proving that the only people benefiting here are those who are profiting.
