This is maddening. The Bill literally does the things the Minister is saying she doesn’t want to happen. Has she read it?

Why are we wasting time on this nonsense? We could be working together to provide homes, support, jobs…

'Imagine you're head to the pavement and you dread footsteps coming towards you because it's you that's going to be a victim of crime.'

Crisis chief exec, Matt Downie says the bill that could criminalise homelessness is 'counterproductive and cruel'.

It should not be govt policy to arrest people simply because they do not have a roof over their head. We would urge the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the Home Secretary James Cleverly🇬🇧 to listen to their colleagues calls and drop these punitive measures. bit.ly/3TIX8Zc

This is heartbreaking and must serve as a call to arms.

Political will is the block. It must be overcome.

Thanks Justlife for your focus and leadership.

BREAKING: New child mortality data shows 55 children have died in temporary accommodation.

This is the devastating human cost of our housing emergency. It’s people who pay the highest price of our failure to build more truly affordable social housing.

Last week's sig. 📈 in & rough sleeping stats showed we need a long term plan but there are also short term solutions that could make a huge difference to councils in this week's Budget starting with lifting the TA subsidy cap as outlined by Matt Downie 👇

Yesterday saw rough sleeping rise again by 27%. For all of us working to address we know it is a solvable problem and things can be different (as this graph shows only 3 yrs ago). My blog on how we got here & the opportunity to set this right crisis.org.uk/about-us/the-c…

With numbers in the homelessness system at record levels, it's vital the Scottish Gov invests in new affordable and social homes, while pressing on with plans to prevent homelessness from happening in the first place scotsman.com/news/politics/…

Really powerful front page from the The Daily Record today - cuts to the housing budget won't just make it harder to meet house building targets, they will make it harder to meet all of our other aspirations as a nation dailyrecord.co.uk/news/politics/…

This sign isn’t real... yet. We put up this fake sign to expose the Government’s plan to criminalise sleeping on the streets - and to find out what people on the streets of London think about it.

Email your MP now to stop these inhumane laws. bit.ly/4bqu4xN

Criminalising people experiencing homelessness is archaic and harmful and will do nothing to solve the problem. Please help us stop this becoming a reality by emailing your MP 👇
