But landlords can still evict

Even more fundamentally the Bill still places no restrictions on the landlord's right to evict for any reason he desires. As long as any tenant can be evicted at one month's notice simply because the landlord wants to sell the property or put up the rent, or, as happens all too often because he does not like the tenants, any legislation to protect the tenant is unlikely to have much effect.

What tenant is going to go to all the trouble of a protracted Court battle, when he knows he can be put on the street for any reason other than that he has enforced his rights? There is no penal sanction against the landlord-bully who "persuades" a tenant to leave through strong arm tactics or harassment.
