Jeremy Corbyn proposes rent controls

Labour is proposing new powers to control rents, Jeremy Corbyn announced in his conference speech.

The leader told delegates in Brighton: "Rent controls exist in many cities across the world, and I want our cities to have those powers too and tenants to have those protections."
