Sure, but Renters United isn't active in Christchurch. I'm not aware of any local events they're promoting. As far as I'm aware, nobody is even attending council meetings or community discussions that are often held at churches.
I had a quick look through their website, they want to implement rent control as a way of controlling the housing crisis.
Because the best way to increase the supply of something is to limit the price of it.
They focus on renters rights but I wish they'd do more about having a proper housing market. You know, complete with competition and stuff like that.
