Landlords often charge tenants for basic services like utilities and maintenance, then pocket the difference as profit.

A New Politics for Britain

Expecting an elected chamber to end landlordism when 76 MPs are landlords is for the birds; you cannot end poaching when the lawmakers are poachers.

That "legal requirements" bit tells us so much, especially when you add it to the "I don't want to be a distraction" statement.
