Which begs the question, why would you want to share your house with someone who is untrustworthy ?

The white junction should have been the other way up. I can't make much sense of the rest of it.

so now the mrs wakes me up at 5am and tells me she wants the locks removed now!
Why, because the locks turn it into a HMO!

I think it already is, regardless of locks - two households in the house - ie the couple, and the friend.

I agree, I think I need to apply for a license or not let them move in or they need to become family.

Three in the bed is all the rage in some places apparently! Does that make them a family?
Difficult one really, shared house isnt uncommon.

(a) HMOs meeting the standard test
A building meets the standard test if it is a building in which more than one household has living accommodation (other than self-contained flats) and:
- at least 2 households share a basic amenity, or
- the living accommodation is lacking in a basic amenity
Basic amenities are defined as a toilet, personal washing facilities or cooking facilities[footnote 5]. The degree of sharing is not relevant and there is no requirement that all the households share those amenities.
Following extensive consultation, we have acted to combat rogues from being able to operate substandard accommodation for maximum profit by extending the scope of mandatory HMO licensing so that properties used as HMOs in England which house 5 people or more in 2 or more separate households will in many cases require a licence.

I just checked with the council and they said
HMOs of 3 or 4 people do not require a mandatory HMO licence but may be subject to any Additional or Selective Licensing scheme should one be in place in the borough in the future. These smaller HMOs must still comply with the required standards and have planning permission.
