Direct action WINS again! After being told L&Q "couldn't give us a date" for repairs, we kept up the pressure until they agreed to send the surveying team out within DAYS to get our doors and windows repaired at Primrose E9 😎💪 The tenants united, will never be defeated! 🚩🚩

As calls for controls on rents become stronger, the attacks on the policy are intensifying. Even as rents continue to outstrip wage growth, the Institute for Economic Affairs (IEA) has put out claims to oppose the policy. They are wrong, and here's why... 🏘️🧵[1/9]

🚨RENTERS VS THE BANKS🚨 TSB are creating rental insecurity. Their Buy-to-Let mortgage terms mean that tenants cannot be offered contracts of longer than one year. Today we're taking action at TSB branches across England and Wales demanding they change this policy!

On Monday 19th February the world lost Louie Herbert - a dear friend and comrade and a founding member of ACORN - following a short illness. It’s fair to say that there wouldn’t be ACORN as we know it today without Louie. He was there from the very inception in 2013, busy setting up the structures, office space and securing the funding needed to get things moving.

You're perhaps the most dense journo, London has over 30,000 homes empty "long-term". Billionaire investment portfolios treat our city like a playground, practically printing cash keeping homes empty as the line goes up. We should tax them out of existence.
Tom Harwood@tomhfh

London is perhaps the least dense major city in the world. And that makes its housing among the most expensive. The only way is up. Central London should be seven to ten storeys standard - like Paris.

Something special is happening in north london... We've had enough of low-quality housing, dodgy landlords running free, and evictions on the rise, so we're standing up for ourselves, getting organised, and fighting back for what's ours. And we're winning big. Find out how👇

Proof council leaders have concealed the truth about how long they've known about dangers at Barton House! After a question by ACORN member Andy Watt, they've revealed structural issues were known in August 2022. @MarvinJRees gambled with residents lives bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-n…

This is what politicians & journos fail to understand about ACORN. We aren't kindhearted do-gooders helping people out, we're working class people standing up for ourselves. Viv got harrassed by bailiffs, so she led & won a campaign to get rid of them. Because she's ACORN.
ACORN the union@ACORNunion

23,000 low income households in Manchester will no longer be chased for council tax debts by bailiffs thanks to a huge campaign by ACORN members and our friends at @debtjustice👊
