Forced out by a 50% RENT HIKE!

Rising rents are a political choice to put profits before people. We must continue to organise and fight for rent control!

"I've seen my rent TRIPLE in the past 16 years."

LRU member and teacher Raquel on why she's taking action on the 14th December to demand rent controls.

[Beth Stratford @beth_stratford]

Many MPs urged gov't to include rent controls in Renters Rights Bill last week (see https://t.co/mAYHtrtjM6)
But @mtpennycook & @AngelaRayner argued rent controls wld reduce supply of homes

Short🧵w/ data to show this risk is small & can be mitigated, and benefits outweigh costs

NOW: we’re outside of Gove’s front door serving him a GIANT EVICTION NOTICE!

Gove has shown more interest in protecting landlord profit than protecting families from homelessness.

It’s time to kick the landlord lobby & their mates in government out!

I want Morocco to win purely for football, but its hard to get down with the idea that Morocco doing well in the WC represents 'Global South unity' & anti-colonial triumph when the state occupies & colonises Western Sahara, an Arab, Muslim, African & 'Global South' nation.

I often hear Americans & rich brits justify buying oversized, polluting vehicles by claiming they need them because they live in the "countryside".

I call bullshit, Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce, the Citroen C15⬇

@BreakeyJessica @vronsta Oh she made them?!! Daaamn

[London Renters Union @LDNRentersUnion]

We’ve had enough of disrepair, mould, broken boilers and cold homes.

Councils have powers to regulate landlords but don't use them nearly enough.

Ahead of local elections in May we're demanding councils #SideWithRenters.
