Preston City Council is exploring the possibility of extending a hand of friendship to a town in Palestine as a symbol of our sympathy with the people of Palestine, the wider Middle East and those of all faiths / communities who are suffering through conflict across the globe 1/2

South Asian solidarity during the Miners' Strike. Here's a food collection leaflet in Urdu and Punjabi that was distributed across Birmingham. Street collections on Soho Road in Handsworth were known to be amongst the best supported & miners squabbled over who got that 'patch.'
1/21 Amid such bleak news from Birmingham here’s a more detailed look at something distinctive about it - its legacy of inter-war art deco private flats. No other UK city outside London has so many, and there are virtually none in the obvious peers like Leeds and Manchester.
Tonight @localsolutions Big SleepOut is taking place at Liverpool Cricket Ground. Every penny raised will support our homeless provision and take us one step closer to achieving our vision of ending homelessness. @srcdoyle @liamrobinson24 @LiamThorpECHO @lpoolcouncil @LandAid
✍️ Myself & @_RuthieB_ have been campaigning to protect the Household Support Fund 💷 It has enabled us to help 330,000 residents with food, fuel and other emergency costs over 3 years 📢 The fund must be extended beyond March 2024 in @Jeremy_Hunt's budget on Wednesday
Thread 🧵 Next week we are bringing our budget proposals to full council. Our proposals include an additional £3.5m for children's services, rising to £4.8m from 2025/26 (1/5)
New research underlines the strong case for social housing, with £31.4bn in wider benefits to society inc: · £5.2bn savings to the NHS · £4.5bn savings to homelessness services · £2.7bn savings due to fewer disruptions to education & this is only a starting point of 90k builds
1.3mil households are on the waiting list for a social home, but every year we lose more than we build. We've done the maths. And there can be no more excuses. 🚨 Our research with @natfednews finds building 90k social homes would add £51.2 BILLION to the economy over 30 years.
🚨New social housing sales/demolition figs today🚨 27,616 social homes sold/demolished in 2022/23. Of that, 10,896 were Right to Buy sales, again outstripping supply of social rent homes (9,561). Every year since 2013/14, more social homes have been sold under RTB than built (1)
Our plan to rent houses to deliver temporary accommodation will 🏡 Move people and families out of hotels and into proper homes close to schools and in communities 💷 Lead to net saving of £121m until 2029 We will lobby for a national solution to this Tory homelessness crisis
#News: The issue of #homelessness & the cost of temporary accommodation will take centre stage at a Cabinet meeting later today. A five-year plan, which could save the council more than £100m, is to be considered. liverpoolexpress.co.uk/liverpool-look… 1/2

Five of the best books about the UK housing crisis
From costs to quality, housing can make you despair. Our best five books explain the politics behind the problems – and the solutions
No one in social housing should play any role in this proposal except to oppose it. It is purely a last ditch, desperate attempt by #sunak to appeal to right wing racist voters, using rhetoric that the fascists in the National Front used in the 1970s. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

Tory social housing plan aims to prioritise ‘British homes for British workers’
Exclusive: Proposals to be put forward next month will favour UK citizens, but experts say they are likely to be illegal or unworkable
We agree with our friends at @Shelter this is scapegoating and will not deliver the social homes we need to tackle homelessness. To end the housing crisis we need proper solutions - not policies that exclude people from support when they need it most. bit.ly/3OeCo9T
