Labour's homelessness minister Rushanara Ali is said to have ejected tenants from one of her properties in Bow, East London, before putting it back on the market for an extra £700 a month in rent.

Landlord MP Rushanara Ali told tenants their lease would not be renewed and gave them four months' notice to get out of the £3,300-a-month property, a renter has claimed.

Rushanara Ali has previously criticised ‘private renters being exploited and discriminated against’
