Instead of Camden addressing the homelessness crisis, they instead invest in planters and an excessive number of bike racks to prevent rough sleepers from having anywhere remotely safe or warm to pitch their tent - well done @Sagal_AW following closely behind Georgia Gould 🙄

SHAC and Members in the Guardian - Awaab’s law is not working, say social housing tenants stuck in mouldy homes theguardian.com/society/2026… Thx for covering this @guardian. It's really simple. There's no point creating new laws unless you also make it possible for tenants & residents to enforce them. The fact that nothing was written in to close the enforcement gap is deliberate. It was excluded to keep the landlord lobby happy. This is why we need a #NationalHousingUnion.

Residents say new legislation in England forcing landlords to fix dangerous hazards is not improving conditions

Developers and landlords have made London so deeply unaffordable that people cannot have children here anymore. If we want families to be able to live in this city, the government must cut the rent with rent controls now and council homes.
