A talk with Nick Bano

Hear how government policy has promoted a two-tier class system between homeowners and renters. Nick Bano presents a Marxist interpretation of this calamity and a radical approach to its reform.

We invite you to a talk with Nick Bano on his book, Against Landlords: How to Solve the Housing Crisis
Nick Bano is a barrister who specialises in representing renters & homeless people.

Nick argues a lack of housing is not the cause of the housing crisis. The real culprit is a scheme of policy that promotes a two-tier class system between homeowners and renters. The abolition of rent control, housing commodification and land speculation created a system that extracts wealth from the disadvantaged to the better-off. Nick presents a Marxist interpretation, showing the interconnections between the housing crisis, racism, ecological destruction and inadequate wages/ pensions. 

Join us to discuss solutions to a problem we all face!

This is the second in a series of events we are calling The Learning Circle. These are talks by trade unionists for trade unionists. These sessions are free and open to all members of the working class.
