The funny side of renting in London (because if you didn't laugh you'd cry...)

Islington Council bans tiny bedsit

During my sporadic posts on this blog along with my own experiences looking for flats in the capital I have seen several very tiny bedsits advertised online.

So the fact that a landlord in Islington was charging £737 for this flat did not surprise me at all. What did surprise me was the amount of publicity it generated.  Clearly there are people in London who have no idea how expensive and difficult it is to rent a home in the capital.


I suppose that once the flat had done the rounds on social media Islington Council felt that it was best to put a stop to any bad publicity.
