Most people who use drugs or have severe mental health problems do not experience homelessness and many people who experience homelessness do not use drugs or have mental health problems

Domestic abuse causes more homelessness than eviction. We should be doing more to prevent domestic abuse and more to ensure that victims of domestic abuse are not made homeless

Our housing isn't just too expensive. It's too small. Brits get 24 per cent less housing per person than Austrians, and 22 per cent less than Canadians

With temperatures dropping, many councils are providing emergency accommodation for people who are homeless. We’re working with them to get everyone inside. If you're concerned about someone who's homeless, please report them using the @Tell_StreetLink website.

And here's a handy graphic, the UK shows what bad planning looks like, setting an example for others to not follow (we remain optimistic that Labour will get going on this soon, 30% more homelessness money for English LAs is a good sign)

Offical statistics confirm that over the past few years we have seen a dramatic and sustained increase in the number of people experiencing homelessness and the number of people living in temporary accommodation.

Our project participants have just created this fascinating booklet as part of their ‘Historical Perspectives of Homelessness’ Exhibition, thanks to @HistoricEngland. It provides a comprehensive overview of homelessness legislation from the Medieval period to the present day.

Council spending on temporary accommodation has hit £2.2bn a year, but many residents continue to endure unacceptable living conditions. Our current approach isn't working. It's time to create a system where experiences in TA are short, safe and healthy. insidehousing.co.uk/news/council-s…

@geographyjim I thought it was very notable that the most recent ONS report showed that London house prices were rising lower than other regions whereas rents were rising higher than other regions. Do you have a theory why that might be?

Private rent affordability is worse than ever according to Dataloft figures published by ONS, which is odd as I distinctly remember being told that recent rent increases were not a sign of shortages as they were going up in line with earnings ons.gov.uk/economy/econom…
