We support housing association tenants and residents to withhold payment of rent and service charge increases, because they are unaffordable or unethical.

[Bede House @bedehouse]

Wednesday 21st June, 11-2pm, the Bede Summer Fair. Everyone welcome. See poster for details.

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

Multi-millionaire Tory politicians are attacking YOUR right to strike.

They're planning to SACK key workers who take action to improve pay and conditions.

Join the emergency rally in Westminster to say: 

REJECT and REPEAL the Strikes Bill.

[SHAC Action @ActionShac]

Alongside the factors raised in the show, the housing crisis cannot be solved while housing associations are allowed to continue as they are.

Our members say: Social purpose has been ditched by HAs. The sector is extremely rich, income-obsessed, and highly commercialised.

Your bankrupt councils this month: Thurrock, Warrington, Croydon (yes, yet again). Meanwhile in Camden, the mayor spent £17k in just four months being chauffeured around in luxury. Rotten Boroughs, only in Private Eye - new edition in shops now!

Fire chiefs today call for multiple staircases in new high-rise buildings. Councils such as #Enfield have recently ignored lessons of #Grenfell to approve single escape towers - they should reconsider. Read more: https://t.co/5NnjCN7HRb #housingworkers #ukhousing @HAWRNet

We won! It's been cancelled - it only took 54,000 signatures on a petition, and a threatened mass mobilisation to picket & protest at the event! We're standing down from this one, but our fight for housing justice continues.

Utterly bizarre that politicians who have their meals subsidised by the taxpayer say there is no money to feed hungry kids in schools. Over just 3 years, the public have forked out over £17m to subsidise MPs' meals. There's plenty of money; it's just going to the wrong places.

You Mum waits 40 hours for an ambulance so BP don’t have to pay tax.
Your kids can’t afford University so Amazon don’t have to pay tax.
Your sister can’t get housing so Google don’t have to pay tax.
Your Gran’s on a 5 year hospital waiting list so Vodaphone don’t have to pay tax.

1/ Today's the official publication day for my new book! Some retailers have had to re-order stocks already but it should be widely available from good bookstores:

... And they wonder why we never trust them, especially when they plead poverty. I don't know a single housing association that doesn't claim 'transparency' is one of its core values!

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

In Part 2 of The #LabourFiles, Al Jazeera's @ajiunit reveals how UK Labour Party officials searched the social media accounts of thousands of Jeremy Corbyn supporters, looking for ways to silence them.

[Hexagon Residents @HexagonForum]

Nearly 45,000 signatures! Scrap the awards!

[Al Jazeera Investigations @AJIunit]

The I-Unit has obtained the largest leak of documents in British political history.
The expose reveals how bureaucrats inside the Labour Party crush democracy and silence opposition within the party’s ranks.
Watch now:
The #LabourFiles – The Purge.

Really??? A lavish awards ceremony for housing association executives in the worst cost-of-living crisis for 40 years @insidehousing and @CIHhousing?
Please sign & share our petition to get it cancelled!
