Enfield council ended the homeless duties of 115 families making them destitute. This is a political choice by the council to end homeless support to their most vulnerable residents. As the stats show Enfield are unique in pursuing this devastating policy https://t.co/ejMVSJuVVC

@lambeth_council this is outrageous expecting anyone to live in such condition yet alone a disabled mother and her baby. Also she should not be in hostel accommodation and living in fear. @lambeth_council rehouse this family immediately

[achi11ea (please share pinned post) @achi11ea]

Hi @lambeth_council, please look into this immediately! Any hostel is unsuitable for a parent & baby, let alone one with such serious safety concerns. Please ensure that the family are moved as a matter of urgency.

[Haringey Housing Action Group @HaringeyHousing]

@lambeth_council Thank you, we've sent a DM

[Haringey Housing Action Group @HaringeyHousing]

Why are @lambeth_council ignoring a disabled mother who needs an urgent move from her hostel accommodation? She and her baby are enduring these appalling conditions, & living in fear of harassment from other residents. Don't make her spend Christmas like this, @lambeth_council!

🥳Victory against private sector discharge! Our member + her baby were being forced over 100 miles outside of London by Brent council. With help from the brilliant GT Stewart solicitors, our member successfully challenged Brent council's decision to force her from her community💪

[Haringey Housing Action Group @HaringeyHousing]

We should be giving families who lost children space to grieve, & working to halt root causes of violence. Instead, a tragedy is being used to stir up racist violence. We call on @ukhomeoffice @YvetteCooperMP to safeguard targeted communities by suspending immigration reporting.

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🚨@ealingcouncil @CllrLouiseBrett don't make kids face the bailiffs tomorrow morning! You must give the family temporary accommodation TODAY! 🚨

Housing officers have put in writing that they won't house our family until *after* the bailiff eviction - this is unlawful! 😡

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🏆Private sector discharge Quiz champions! On Sat 8th HASL @HaringeyHousing @AkwaabaHackney @LambethMAF @publiclawcentre @SouthwarkLawCen @SWLLawCentres @NWLondonLC came together to look at our research + plan London-wide action to end private sector discharge for good! 💪✊❤️🏡

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🚨Our member is homeless today. We've been waiting for hours at @IslingtonBC - her 4 year old has resorted to making animal noises 🐸🐷 We have not had any guarantee that they will be given emergency housing 😡 #gatekeeping

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🤩 Holding the number 1 spot all morning! Our vital research on hundreds of homeless families being forced out of London with a powerful quote from @HaringeyHousing member who resisted being moved to Stoke!

👀 more campaigning on this issue coming soon. https://t.co/YRtR6DBMve

[Haringey Housing Action Group @HaringeyHousing]

In the past months @EnfieldCouncil has tried to send several of our members hundreds of miles away from their London communities. We helped them fight this, but HASL's research shows how many other homeless people are facing the same cruelty. Social housing not social cleansing!

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🚨Our exclusive research in the Guardian this morning! Record numbers of homeless families are being forced out of London away from their jobs, schools + support networks under the threat of destitution. We need social housing not social cleansing! ✊♥️🏡 https://t.co/YRtR6DBMve

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🚨Why are @lb_southwark #gatekeeping a 22 year old homeless cancer patient? They refused to give him temporary accommodation and gave him the addresses of homeless shelter's 😠 he was forced to stay in hospital because of the council's unlawful #gatekeeping @kieronjwilliams

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🚨There are over 142,490 homeless kids in England. In the school holidays some of these kids delivered an eviction notice to Michael Gove for his role in fuelling the housing crisis.

🤩We absolutely love this video by @ReelNewsLondon of our protest

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🏚️100s of homeless families + individuals served an eviction notice on Michael Gove at the Department for Housing (Levelling Up etc) last week for fuelling the homelessness crisis and demanding the high-quality council homes we need!

👀📺Watch us on TV!

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

🪅👀🏚did you see our temporary accommodation piñata get destroyed outside the Department for Housing yesterday? Temporary accommodation shouldn't exist because we should all have the good council homes we need!

[HASL @HousingActionSL]

It's hard to find words to even describe this kind of "housing" which is basically a bed next to a hob + fridge.

So proud of Teresa and her daughter for fighting for their case against @NewhamLondon's cruel treatment💪

Great reporting by @RubyLGregory
