All wonderful and so inspiring, well worth a listen ->

“In Finland, the # of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” scoop.me/housing-first-…

My heart squirms when I see Israelis act in ways that seem ridiculous and heavy handed. I’m always cautious to assume we have the full story because of the Palestinian lie factory. I wish the other side would squirm a little when they axe to death Jews and stone babies to death.

The past 48 hours have been another appalling show of the non-Jewish world’s bloodlust to frame Israel, Zionists and Jews as the worst of humanity. No patience for investigation or evidence as to how a journalist died or how the funeral erupted in chaos. Confirmation bias.

@WEP_UK @WEP_UK this is incredibly biased and misleading in its wording. I’m really shocked.

🗳 Nearly 500 residents in #Clissold put their faith in @WEP_UK, a relatively new political party with sensible ideas. More votes than the Tories or the Lib Dems. Other parties just aren’t doing enough for women & equality and we invite them to #stealourpolicies @catherine_mayer

🗳 WEP Hackney at the count! Good luck! 🗳

Out #canvassing with our brilliant candidate @TabithaMortonWE in Clissold Ward. We’re getting a very positive response on the doorstep. #Elections2022 @WEP_UK #hackney @AmberFC

"While the government has promised a new focus on embodied carbon, any shift in the approach taken by the construction industry will require economic incentives." Time for local authorities to introduce #UpFrontCarbon offset funds in planning? @WHurst1 /1 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@WomensBudgetGrp Thank you for all you do. Rest is so important especially in these times.

From today the WBG office will be closed for an extended period of leave. We'll be back on 19th April. During this period, our inboxes & social media accounts will not be monitored. Before we go, we wanted to explain why we are taking such a long break... wbg.org.uk/contact/

Today, the Government made a choice to push people into poverty. This isn't simply a crisis. It is a scandal that has been 12 years in the making, the result of successive political choices that everyone will feel - particularly women. Our response: wbg.org.uk/media/release-…
