Our campaign against Nottingham City Council to end the use of private bailiffs in the collection of council tax debt. We believe that this practice is cruel and should be stopped. Please sign and share our petition here: acornuk.good.do/eastmidlands/n…
Come along this Thursday and help stop the Mansfield Road mass eviction!

Unleashing Finance Capitalism in the City: An Interview with Isaac Rose, Author of The Rentier City...
Jonathan Silver interviews author and tenant organizer Isaac Rose about his book on housing financialization in Manchester, The Rentier City. They discuss the motivations for writing the book,…
🏠 The Labour Party pledged that they would end Section 21 “no fault” evictions within days of being elected. One year on, we’re still waiting for them to deliver on this promise, and for the Renters’ Rights Bill. This isn’t good enough - renters can’t wait!
🚨 MASSIVE WIN ALERT 🚨 At our last branch meeting we had the pleasure of sharing the results of our meeting with the Council about our Cost of Living campaign demands. 🧵
ACORN on the front page ✊🏾 The press are listening! Now will the council? 🤔
Yesterday we threw down the gauntlet at @BristolCouncil: End your use of bailiffs to collect council tax debt! If you'd like to pile on the pressure yourself, check out the link below to email Tony Dyer your thoughts on Bristol Council's use of bailiff thugs.
ACORN won't be harassed, intimidated or ignored. We will get justice. @AzizTextilesLtd get this sorted asap!
Last Sunday, we picketed our member Ebrahim's Landlord @AzizTextilesLtd to push for compensation for failing to deal with awful black mould for years, which caused his family to be hospitalised. Here's how the company director Javed responded. Let's keep fighting! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏻

Hundred year waits. 1.3 million families on the wait list. For every social house built, two are lost to the Right to Buy. Until the government reckons with this, this will continue. End Right to Buy. Build council houses!
Good day doorknocking and signing up new supporters for our Boot the Bailiffs campaign - it's a struggle to find anybody who supports Nottingham City Council's policy of using private bailiffs against vulnerable residents. Time for an ethical debt collection policy!
“Opponents argue that rent controls are a radical and unworkable idea. This is untrue: they are practiced widely, with the UK (minus Scotland) only one of three countries in northwest Europe to spurn rent controls entirely.” 👏
🚨 The Government urgently needs policies which: — 📈 Improve the cost of living — 💰 Do not cost public money — 👨🏭 Place them on the side of working people 🧵 The answer? Rent controls. Our latest Perspectives piece by @Sachahilhorst 👇 common-wealth.org/perspectives/t…
Our Cameroon affiliate STRASCAS has a new website! They represent 4,000 sugar workers facing hazardous conditions at SOSUCAM who bravely struck in February despite deadly violence. Follow their fight for labor rights and environmental justice at strascas.org
It’s time to kick these parasites out of the energy system. Nationalisation NOW.
“A home isn’t just a bit of shelter, it’s a place your kids grow up, a place you relax, a place you feed yourselves, sleep. It’s the foundation of a healthy life.” @ACORN_Brighton chair, Poppy, at the Homes for All rally last week🗣️
We stopped attempts to illegally evict one of our members ✊ They tried to claim our member isn't the tenant so they could do what they like... WRONG! ❌ The council has joined in warning them to stay away ✅ And they're investigating the landlord for not having a licence ✅
ACORN London @ACORN_Brighton members supporting the @homes4alluk Spring Budget protest. Rent controls and council homes is the only way out of this housing crisis!
While Rachel Reeves was delivering the Spring Statement, we were at Parliament with @HomesForAllEng demanding rent controls and more social housing now! The change we need won’t be handed to us from above. We have to fight for it!
We are campaigning for the Council to stop pushing vulnerable residents into a spiral of Council Tax debt and enforcement action. After successful campaigns Councils across the country have already adopted ethical debt collection policies which curtail the use of bailiffs
ACORN is the people's army 💪
We’re out in Chorley today, resisting an eviction and fighting to keep our member in their home. It’s what we do💪
18,000 "affordable" homes while 1.3 million people are on the social housing wait list.
🚨 NEW: Chancellor Rachel Reeves has announced a £2 billion investment to build up to 18,000 new social and affordable homes by 2029
After 6 long, sweaty hours, the eviction was finally called off. Badhaso, his partner and two young kids should never have been put through this ordeal, but they're at least still safe and housed. Direct action gets the goods! ❤️ (And join @ACORNunion )
Still here, still strong! We've held the line for more than 2 hours so far. Police are busy trying to figure out how they can legally facilitate the eviction of a vulnerable refugee Muslim family during Ramadan. All we're asking is the eviction be called off. @cardiffcouncil
Come along to our next all members' meeting! We'll be planning campaigns, organising activities, and maybe, just maybe, going to the pub afterwards for a natter #Nottingham #communityunion
