I have no words anymore. States. Must. Intervene. This isn’t genius, it’s leadership. 1. Impose an arms embargo and cut trade. 2. Break the blockade with your humanitarian navies. 3. Send a protective presence to Palestine to ensure Israel dismantles its occupation NOW.

Vicky Spratt Renters Rights - hooray! But what about rent regulation? Opportunity missed And the real elephant: the affordability crisis. Building 1.5m homes will bring prices down a mere 0.8% says OBR! Planning ‘reform’ = surrender to housebuilder oligopolists who are refusing to build

New blog post: Southwark Council votes to reduce affordable housing requirements. 35percent.org/posts/mayor-to…

35% Campaign Planning policy can’t be changed by a simple vote, it requires a consultative process and assessment by a planning inspector. They seem to be acting ultra vires as well as prematurely. But, hey, maybe they’re voting for their elimination at next May’s elections?

The answer is building council housing

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire. Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines. Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

Labour MPs and volume property developers sure do spend a lot of time together. Did you know ministers refused to meet with a single ecologist about the planning bill? No wonder it’s a developers charter. A real lose lose unless you’re a greedy developer CEO.

Only 2% of people want environmental protections weakened. Imagine if the government passed legislation that catered to other 2% groups like people who never eat fruit or DnD players.

Seriously, how has Labour not sorted this yet

I was never more appalled than when I saw Pret A Manger in Paris.

Social housing tenants need a rent freeze, not rent convergence dlvr.it/TPhkTB #ukhousing

This press release from #Lambeth is a convenient smokescreen for its mismanagement: 1. Why is its management agreement with LEMB so weak that it can't take any action? That is not a problem with legislation. A🧵 love.lambeth.gov.uk/lambeth-counci…

2. We were asked to look at this back in 2017. Lambeth have known about this situation for a long time. Why didn't they do anything about it. 3. The internal audit in 2021 provided substantial assurance!: moderngov.lambeth.gov.uk/documents/s130… Clearly something went very wrong here.

‘Labour have lost control of development in #Southwark, and residents are the ones paying for it,’ says Lib Dem leader at the council Monthly column by Victor Chamberlain southwarknews.co.uk/area/southwark…

There is a clear pattern of Steve Reed looking people in the eye and making promises that he completely bulldozed over months later. Journalists- This needs more attention. Residents- We need to let our collective anger unite us in action. ✊ Craig Bennett Hannah Bourne-Taylor

Narrowly focused Treasury wonks driving planning reforms?? Madness. Is it any wonder we have 172,000 homeless children in the UK, and have lost 25% of London’s industrial land to investor landing-strips of unaffordable housing? theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
