AIBU to want this man off our street?

[LokiOdinson]

He's a complete twat. Drug dealer, nuisance at 5am (loudly driving up and down the roads as fast as possible), rude, aggressive, noisy, regular bonfires that stink of chemicals (I usually love the smell of bonfires!) And while it's stereotypical he's honestly dragging this little area down into something horrible. It wasn't the best, but it was nice enough. I moved here a few years before he moved in and I'm saddened by how he treats his lovely neighbours, driving them out of the area, and how disgusting his house is. Also, backyard breeder.

I don't know what we can do. Landlord knows, police know of him.

I can understand why you want him out, but in reality he has as much right to live there as you.

At least he rents, hopefully he’ll move on.

I totally understand why you wouldn't want this person living near you. I would contact you local neighborhood police team and local council anti-social behaviour team/environmental health. If he is a private tenant the landlord is the only one who could evict him however the police and local council do have powers under the 2014 anti-social behaviour, crime and policing act regards his behaviour. Council also have powers under the environmental health act re noise and bonfires.
I would suggest making a diary of what he is doing, dates, times etc. Also if you can try and record any noise or disturbances - see if your local council has the noise app which is useful. In order to take action both police and council would need evidence.
Chances are he's probably known to both services.

YANBU to want his tenancy consisting enforces to the utmost.

YABU if you start a vendetta against or think you can dictate who lives on your street.

Tenancy CONDITIONS, I mean.

Keep a log of anti-social behaviour and complain to envoiremental health about filth/noise/smell.
Re backyard breeder report to RSPCA?
I bet the animals arent kept in great condition.

Get the number for the out of hours noise complaints team from your council and ring them every time. You can do this by searching or my logging a complaint electronically and they should give you the number to call next time it happens.
Look into who you would call about a toxic bonfire and do the same.
If he's contacted every time there's late night noise and anti social behaviour (there are legal hours where too much noise becomes illegal - even hoovering on a Sunday isn't allowed, strange enough not that anyone should enforce that ) he will surely get fed up and find a new place to rent. You can even give the council his landlord's contact info so he gets inundated with messages from them each time (maybe).

of course he does and disturb everyone elses lives as a result.

The replies on the thread!!
We'd all be horrified if we lived here. It's highly stressful.
If he is in breach of his tenancy (bonfires, criminal activity - drug dealing), I'd raise to the agent the landlord uses. No landlord wants criminal activity as it invalidates insurance and will act.

Yes exactly, he also has the same rights as anyone else to be rude and aggressive, to deal drugs and to treat the street like a private race track.

That's to say, no right whatsoever.

Complain each and every time something happens. Noise pollution, dog mess, loud noise, asbo, every single time. Hopefully he will be evicted.

most LL unless they are daft would want him out
Sounds easy doesn't it? Unfortunately it isn't it can take up to 7months section 21 or more (& section 21 is changing) & (thank you covid) LL can't evict or start process over the last months which has meant an enormous backlog. It would be interesting to know if the contact is agent & agent hasn't informed LL - it happens more than you might imagine. Have the police been involved?
