I cannot agree with the idea that landlords are picked upon.
The disgraceful behaviour of a a group of landlords who, when govt gave extra funds to students because they were suffering hardship due to high rents immediately raised their rents by the exact amount illustrated very clearly that here was a group of individuals who wanted to make money & to annoy the govt; the welfare of those students simply didn't enter their consciousness.
They are exactly the sort of people who shouldn't be permitted to get away with such behaviour.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
