🚨 New figures just released show that there are now over 172,000 children in England who don’t have a home.
That's not a statistic, it's a national shame.
Behind every number is a child living in a B&B, a family torn from their community, a right to housing denied.

The UK recognising Palestine is 100 years too late.
It acts as a reminder that the colonial powers that carved up the region in the first place now get to “grant” recognition. Palestinians never needed permission to exist.

🇵🇸 The UK recognising Palestine is a positive step, but recognition is not liberation.
This would only really matter if it’s followed by real action: arms embargoes, sanctions, ending complicity in occupation.

🚨 The UK government has just released the latest homelessness statistics.
There is now a record 164,000 homeless children living in temporary accommodation in England — enough to fill Wembley Stadium nearly twice.
This is the first data release under Labour. The era of blaming the Tories is over.

Four years ago today, two-year-old Awaab Ishak died due to exposure to black mould in his home.
When the family had raised the issue with the social housing authorities they were just told to paint over it.
The UK's housing crisis should not be claiming the lives of toddlers.
