Great to see @HomelessAPPG member @deirdrecostigan raising families facing & experiencing the worst forms of homelessness with the Prime Minister today. We look forward to working with the Government to get Britain back on track to ending homelessness.

“It is unjustifiable that people who are sleeping rough, and having to move between night buses, doorways and 24-hour cafes to keep warm, could also be fined or prosecuted just for trying to stay safe."

If you are sleeping rough, you can still be fined up to £1,000 under the Vagrancy Act.
This is unjustifiable in 21st century Britain.

If you are one of the poor souls afflicted with the curse of earning over £100k, please know I will happily take one for the team and swap salaries with you.

It sounds like a lot, but for those with a young family earning a low six-figure salary can put you on a cliff edge where a £2,000 pay rise will cost you £12,000

Given we have no evidence Paddington applied for a visa prior to travel and Peru is a safe third country the Home Office is clearly violating its own rules here.

This headline is such a classic example of how hegets away with it. There's no focus on what this decision says about his homophobia or racism.
It's just all court politics, whose up, whose down in the land of the Puce King.

Donald Trump's decision to elevate Laura Loomer, a far-right activist known for racist and homophobic posts online, has stunned even some of his allies. nyti.ms/3TrFCt6

The APPG for Ending Homelessness has been re-formed after its inaugural meeting this morning.
We elected officers, welcomed new members and heard from Manoel, a Lived Experience Campaigner, on why the APPG matters and the solutions we know can #EndHomelessness

The last few days has been such a clear example of the: online far right talking point -> "respectable" figures "just asking questions" -> Journalists raise it as a "concern", pipeline

Really welcome to see the emphais on delivering social and affordable homes as a foundation for personal security and resilient communities.

We’ve inherited a Tory housing crisis. It will take time to repair the huge damage that’s been done.
But we’re starting as we mean to go on – with energy and purpose - to rebuild Britain and deliver the secure homes people need. ✍🏻 ⬇️

For the love of God, literally 30 seconds left of France v Brazil left in the basketball and the BBC decide to cut away to a generic recap of the days highlights?!?

The Olympics coverage is another example of things just getting worse. Used to be able to watch basically any sport you wanted. Now thanks to the Warner deal you're stuck with 1/2 sports...

Agree with this. Don't have any data but feels like while football will always be king, there's a huge amount of space for a team sport to estalblish itself in second across the Spanish speaking world.
Unlike America, where that market is really crowded.
Just have this odd guy-feel that the future of Rugby growth may be in America but not the America that we’re currently focussing on.
Probably completely wrong and speaking with no basis to make this argument so someone please come educate me!

"I’d go even further by stating the obvious. JD Vance, in reality, is only pick for Vice President of the United States because he happens to tick the relevant identity boxes that according to the modern right need to be ticked. Man? Tick. White? Tick. Sociopath? Tick."

We need to end homelessness with homes. That's why we welcome @AngelaRayner's promise to parliament that the Government will introduce meaningful housing targets for social and affordable homes. This will help ensure everyone has a safe, secure home.
