Mum moans council has put her in ‘damp and smelly’ temporary housing after she and son, 17, are evicted from flat

that she has spent the last two days packing up her and her son's possessions - before unpacking them all over again.

She also had to drop out of her college course because of the move.

She said: "My son is going to be 18 in two weeks. Imagine being 18 in a place like this.

"I am a pawn in the middle of this vicious game. It's been a really difficult situation.

"I'm scared. I'm having to fight my case all the time. We have to fight. If we don't fight we've got nothing."

A spokesperson for Wandsworth Council confirmed workmen had been dispatched to the property to fix its "minor issues".

The workmen had a number of issues that needed seeing to immediately such as installing a smoke alarm and regrouting the bathroom,

'CAN'T LIVE LIKE THIS'

Lisa is now calling on councils country-wide to be on tenants' side.

"I really don't know how to go forward with it, you know? It's very difficult. Every day is like Groundhog Day."

A spokesperson for Wandsworth said: "We inspected the property today in the presence of Ms Johnson, who was consulting her ward councillor via video call, and the landlord in which a number of minor issues were identified that the landlord has agreed will be put right today (Friday).

"Ms Johnson asked that the mattress and kitchen fridge be removed as she has her own she would rather use.

"The repairs are minor and do not make the property unsuitable as temporary accommodation.

"Ms Johnson and her councillor appeared to be satisfied with this outcome and she has contact details of our temporary accommodation team if she has any further concerns she wishes to raise."
