This is what politicians & journos fail to understand about ACORN. We aren't kindhearted do-gooders helping people out, we're working class people standing up for ourselves. Viv got harrassed by bailiffs, so she led & won a campaign to get rid of them. Because she's ACORN.

Proof council leaders have concealed the truth about how long they've known about dangers at Barton House! After a question by ACORN member Andy Watt, they've revealed structural issues were known in August 2022. Marvin Rees gambled with residents lives bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-n…

Interesting - a former No. 10 adviser admits she blocked the Renters (Reform) Bill while in Downing St. This is what we housing campaigners have been up against - there are parts of the Conservative Party that just do not believe in additional protections for renters.

Something special is happening in north london... We've had enough of low-quality housing, dodgy landlords running free, and evictions on the rise, so we're standing up for ourselves, getting organised, and fighting back for what's ours. And we're winning big. Find out how👇

On Monday 19th February the world lost Louie Herbert - a dear friend and comrade and a founding member of ACORN - following a short illness. It’s fair to say that there wouldn’t be ACORN as we know it today without Louie. He was there from the very inception in 2013, busy

You're perhaps the most dense journo, London has over 30,000 homes empty "long-term". Billionaire investment portfolios treat our city like a playground, practically printing cash keeping homes empty as the line goes up. We should tax them out of existence.

🚨RENTERS VS THE BANKS🚨 TSB are creating rental insecurity. Their Buy-to-Let mortgage terms mean that tenants cannot be offered contracts of longer than one year. Today we're taking action at TSB branches across England and Wales demanding they change this policy!

As calls for controls on rents become stronger, the attacks on the policy are intensifying. Even as rents continue to outstrip wage growth, the Institute for Economic Affairs (IEA) has put out claims to oppose the policy. They are wrong, and here's why... 🏘️🧵[1/9]
