Just a reminder 🔥 PS. Migration contributes £3 billion to the UK economy every year. Tax evasion cost us over £5 billion just last year. Let that sink in.

@RNBlake Strong agree here Rachel, surely we could make it so that Airbnb etc is a licensed activity requiring change of use planning permissions?

@lbbdcouncil is always quick to pretend that their “wholly owned !” companies have nothing to do with the council. Reside has been operating as a shell company for years and run by council officers of MyPlace, @lbbdcouncil ‘s housing department! standard.co.uk/news/london/cr…

When I bought a brand new leasehold flat, it was severely defective & posed a risk to life from day 1. As a leaseholder, I had to go to the managing agent / freeholder (who were also the local authority @lbbdcouncil) to ask them to claim under the warranty. They achieved nothing in 3 years of asking and ultimately, the balconies we knew were at risk of collapse, collapsed. If I were a freeholder; I could have gone after the developer myself, but as a leaseholder, I had no right to. When people talk about leasehold reform, they miss the point entirely. Ownership doesn’t come with a landlord. @NLC_2019 @FreeLeasehlders bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Someone needs to shout about this from the rooftops, quite literally, stealing homes from those who need them most is unforgivable - anyone proved to have been involved should face imprisonment. Mass‑scale fraud' feared in Barking and Dagenham Council lets bbc.com/news/articles/…

More bad press for @Clarion_Group, but shameless in their lies. It's time that govt held them to account. Housing associations are basically left to mark their own homework, and it is causing misery and poverty! #EndServiceChargeAbuse
SHAC@SHAC_Action

Thx @BBCSurrey and @JamesCannon66 for exposing Clarion's lies about overcharging - we have the evidence. They are one of the biggest housing associations in the country, meaning the government is hesitant to challenge them. Listen to them lie: youtube.com/watch?v=f3L3DC… We need root and branch change to #endservicechargeabuse

In 2023 the Mayor published evidence claiming that building swanky unaffordable housing makes other housing affordable - the trickle down. But house prices in cheaper areas have risen remorselessly this year, even as prices in the swankiest areas have fallen 18%. Trickle up?
