I found this story very disturbing. Have we got our own version of Peter Rachman.
The spectre of Peter Rachman, the notorious slum landlord of the 1950s, still haunts the private rental market. New statistics passed to me by Shelter show for the first time the number of renters – 136,485 in England – who are at the mercy of rogue landlords.
These are landlords who mend broken windows with cardboard instead of glass and don’t care that water is pouring through a light fitting in your child’s bedroom. They’re happy to pocket the rent while their tenants live in danger and squalor.

Has anyone checked the use of cardboard in the Marrickville area? I drove by Coles®™ the other day and some dude was sifting his way through piles of empty boxes at the back of the Coles®™. Does anyone have any idea who that 'someone' was?
