More than 11,000 households have been evicted by their landlord this year as the government continues to stall on its long-awaited renters' reforms.
The total number of evictions of social and private tenants in England has risen by more than a third compared to the same period last year, according to new statistics published by the Ministry of Justice today.
It comes as rents increased at the fastest pace for seven years, rising by 4.9% in the 12 months to March.
