Sending refugees arriving in Britain to offshore camps in Rwanda is inhumane and cruel. The government must drop this plan immediately. Sign the petition: r.ippl.es/camps/

To those who can’t understand why we’re so angry about the Govt’s plan to transport refugees of colour to Rwanda, they probably don’t remember posters & leaflets like this one in our inner cities Thankfully, good people didn’t stay silent Will you?

The Labour Government’s £39bn for affordable housing with 60% social rent is great news. It could be transformational. The affordable housing crisis is a national emergency- I'm backing Shelter’s call to frontload funding. Families need council homes now. Let’s build them!

Real change is coming.
