An important development which can provide a focus for campaigners to press for the council house building/acquisitions programme needed to begin to resolve the housing crisis. england.shelter.org.uk/support_us/cam…

Serving notice on one income revenue in favour of a more lucrative “temporary” housing option. Asif Aziz’s may feel, it’s nothing personal, it’s just business but say that to those losing their home.
Landlords all over the Capital are offloading in response to the Renters’ Rights bill. This bill was designed to safeguard tenants not make them homeless and paying more, which it inevitably will. @JoshGD @FT

Fabulous piece 👏
Also the trashing of The Elephant & Castle market with traders treated appallingly by Delancey developers. Many cast to the winds. Others accepted places that they said at the time would be unviable and are!
@LatinElephant doing amazing advocacy work still!!

Andy Burnham’s “Manchesterism” rightly argues that the loss of public control of essential services worsens the cost of living crisis.
This is the “Privatisation Premium”.
Our new briefing explains this premium & how to fix it. 🧵

Good thread about great swathes of the Country impoverished & hollowed out. We need a levelling up project to the same extent as the reunification of East & West Germany. The UK is that unequal. Labour should have come into office with a plan.
Capel Lofft@CapelLofft
It still baffles me that Labour do not seem to understand what should be their central mission: vast swathes of provincial Britain, especially towns and small cities, are run down, economically hollowed out, and with a decayed social fabric. Sorting that should be a top priority

The current rate of inflation is about 3%. My rent has increased by 5.76% and my service charge by 8.98%. Talk to me again about how shared ownership is affordable housing. @mtpennycook @MayorofLondon @tomcopley

Social cleansing of areas doesnt just affect housing & shops, the displacement of people destroys the long term, lovingly built-up networks of political organising & many & varied cultures of struggle
Don't see this talked about much. Why so many parts of London are boring now🤷

How it is that people with track record of failure get employed elsewhere?

Temi delivering her speech challenging Lambeth labour to pause the move of the Central Hill day dementia services until many more assurances are given.
It's been ill considered and will not deliver the savings expected, without causing damage to the most vulnerable in Lambeth.

Wrote about Criterion Capital's large-scale eviction of tenants, which some residents told me was being done to make way for the move-in of temporary accommodation residents. A sort of inverse-gentrification driven by 'guaranteed rent' in the TA sector.

Women from Afghanistan have been banned from education by Taliban for 4+ years.
One beats every odd. Gets accepted to a UK university. Overcomes 1,000 obstacles.
And then the UK denies her a visa.
Deeply shameful, @ShabanaMahmood.

There’s a nature-loving majority in this country.
Those in power must listen and stop trashing our environment.
There are far more of us than there are developer lobbyists.
They have the millionaires. We are the millions.
We need a bold campaign to get our nature back.
