Following an election, the Chair of the Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee is Florence Eshalomi MP.

As the chancellor mulls changes to debt rules, read our blog on why this matters and why social housing should be included in reforms. Hint: £50bn of benefits to the economy from social rent can't be ignored. #socialhousing england.shelter.org.uk/what_we_do/upd… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

It's absolutely right that the gov is changing Right to Buy. For decades we’ve lost far more social homes than we’ve built, fuelling homelessness. Current rules stop councils building new social homes. Now its time to back up rule changes with investment at the spending review!

🏡The Deputy PM & Housing Secretary Angela Rayner used Right to Buy herself. 🏡She has told i that the scheme in its current form means “we are losing more social homes than we can build, at huge cost to families, to taxpayers, and to communities”. inews.co.uk/news/housing/t…

150,000+ homeless children are living in temporary accommodation. More people than ever are coming to Shelter's helpline who are homeless/on verge of losing their home. Catch me on Sky News Breakfast with Amber telling her homelssness story👇#homelessness youtube.com/watch?t=9637&v…

FWIW I think the government right to focus on the impact on peoples' pockets. Growth is meaningless unless people actually feel better off. That's why it should use the Spending Review to invest in a new generation of social rent so people can afford the foundation of decent home

Really encouraging new that will help prevent people becoming unnecessarily homeless and ensure they can set up new lives with dignity. Homelessness has a massive human cost but also costs government millions. This is a step in the right direction. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

Homelessness is a political choice and can be ended if the gov invest in 90,000 social rented homes a year for 10yrs at next spending review. Till then please help Shelter support people facing homelessness: shelter.org.uk/winterappeal #homelessness #housingemergency #housing #xmas
