A great article here by @Jason_Cobb. Lambeth is the only council in the country that cannot balance its housing revenue account. Why? A Thread.... brixtonbuzz.com/2025/02/lambet…
South London - see you on Saturday for @ShapeCoalition1 housing emergency march! ✊🏘❤️ Join us to demand that Southwark council stop doing dodgy deals with property developers and make sure our communities have the high-quality 3, 4, 5 bed council homes we need!
Landlords act like a monopoly to keep prices high. Renters must come together and fight to shift the balance of power in our communities and put ordinary people back at the centre of our housing system.
Our housing system has been handed over to bankers and developers, so we live in bankers' and developers' world. If we want to REDUCE the cost of housing - both rent per month and mortgage interest over a lifetime - then we need a lot of social housing and rent controls.
Our response to the government's progress on the Inquiry's Phase 2 recommendations.
Funny how Lambeth Labour councillor Danny Adilypour presents himself as a righteous GMB activist and champion of the masses. Isn't GMB policy against Section 21 evictions? Meanwhile, he is busy kicking out Lambeth tenants from so-called 'regen' estates. instagram.com/reel/DEF0xpptI…

SHAC Action News - our first newsletter of 2025 available now, with articles, calls to action, and campaign updates. shaction.org/newsletters/
Thanks @SkyNews for exposing shocking disrepairs in social housing, and inviting SHAC to comment. youtube.com/watch?v=T3x7Cr… Around 3.5 million UK homes do not meet the regulator's Decent Homes Standard. With so many substandard homes, it cannot be left to individual households to approach the authorities for remedy. This is a failure of government enforcement. We know that councils are struggling from decades of budget cuts, but housing associations collectively have a surplus of £4.4 billion, and rents rose by 7% in 2023 and 7.7% in 2024. They cannot plead poverty and they have no excuse.
Terrible news for all affected.
Our housing system has been handed over to bankers and developers, so we live in bankers' and developers' world. If we want to REDUCE the cost of housing - both rent per month and mortgage interest over a lifetime - then we need a lot of social housing and rent controls.
Exactly, the political horizon should be more and more people being able to access social housing, not fighting over who has access now.
the “point” of social housing is the decommodification of housing, taking shelter out of the market, it’s not exclusively about meeting acute need or crisis
Shocking behaviour from @BerkeleyGroupUK, trying to silence the very people who have experience of what it is like to be a leaseholder in one of their properties. If you "would never" enforce a gagging clause, then remove it from leases. greenwichwire.co.uk/2024/12/11/ber…
Millions of Brits living in Dickensian conditions in cold, damp homes this Christmas One in 10 Brits have frequently experienced 'dangerous levels of mould' in their homes over the past 12 months bigissue.com/news/housing/w…
🧵1) Totally agree, as will many people in #Streatham #London right now who are deeply concerned about the volume of new @UKLabour MPs parachuted in to seats who are lobbyists or financed by corporate interests. opendemocracy.net/en/dark-money-…
1/2 Councillors are told we are either builders or blockers. That's b@##@x. 🏘Housing AFFORDABILITY and homelessness crisis needs council housing not more expensive homes. 👫👭🧑🤝🧑Communities are not stupid. We can balance need for homes, nature, food, energy @TheGreenParty
Yet more evidence that the ‘law of supply and demand’ doesn’t apply to land and housing: demand for rental is falling as increasing numbers of households can’t afford to rent - yet private rents continue to rise remorselessly, by 8.7% over the past year.
As far as I can ascertain there is zero numerical commitment/precision regarding social housing provision within the global 1.5m. target. Until we see that, the 1.5m is fiddlyfiddlesticks🙄
But then the government built 4 council homes for every 1 for sale. We don't have ant target for council housing and Starmer emphasises "the dream of home ownership" as the priority.
In 1915, Glasgow tenants went on rent strike and won the UK's first rent controls. Today in Scotland and across Europe, tenants are fighting back against high rents and they are winning. Now it's our turn. Join us this Saturday 14 December at 11:30am, Cavendish Sq. Gardens.
How will the govt’s changes to the NPPF - tipping the presumption in favour of permissions - make any difference to the fact that London property prices are officially out of reach to all income groups? Over a million planning permissions have been left unbuilt this past decade
You know that thing about #emptyhomes allegedly being ones people don't want to live in? ~ What all 1million of them?! Well the place with the highest level of long-term empties in 2024 is Kingston upon Thames The SouthEast region has the most numerically kingstoncourier.co.uk/kingston-has-t…
If you’re applying for PIP, @turn2us_org has launched The PIP Tool: a free guide to navigate the benefits process. Their goal “is to make sure you know your rights and can afford what you need to enjoy life fully.” Share widely! pip.turn2us.org.uk
Bringing down rents and house prices is clearly not priority #1 for Labour. Private developers cannot fix a housing crisis that they profit from. We need public homes and rent controls to actually bring rents down.
"Would you like prices to come down?" "Its not necessarily prices coming down, its about supply and making sure those houses are there so people can afford them" Angela Rayner is asked if houses are too expensive and her reply is incoherent nonsense because she won't say 'yes'
