Former Afghan interpreter 'rejected by 64 landlords in one month'
82A former Afghan interpreter has told how he has been refused by 64 landlords in just one month as the Government pushes ahead with plans to end hotel stays for those evacuated to the UK following their work with the British Armed Forces and soldiers in the Afghan Army in Afghanistan.
Many former Afghan interpreters face having to leave their taxpayer-funded hotel accommodation as the Government tries to encourage them into their own homes but this has not been straightforward for many amid a housing crisis.
There are almost 50 hotels across the UK housing Afghans who were evacuated to Britain after the Taliban took back control of the country, and while some have found alternative housing, others are finding they are repeatedly turned down by private landlords.
