London is increasingly becoming a city that is unlivable for ordinary people. The housing crisis and cost of living crisis is forcing people out of the city or into poverty. But it doesn’t have to be this way👇

⏰24 hours left for London Mayoral Candidates to back our pledges - then we'll be emailing thousands of members and supporters across London who backed what pledges! You can help by sending an email using the link below acornuk.good.do/london/londonm…
"You are a person that I am satisfied can cope and function reasonably well with ‘day to day’ living and this would, I believe, still be the case if you were to become homeless or to remain homeless.” This is genuinely disgusting. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
This is a national disgrace. The homelessness crisis isn’t an unavoidable fact of life, it’s the direct result of political choices made by those in power. And as those choices have been made, they can be unmade. But only if we’re organised and willing to fight for it. We are.

Homelessness isn’t a force of nature, or an act of god. It’s a political choice made by the people in power. Every day that the homelessness crisis continues is a stain on the hands of those who hold power in this country. A stain that will never wash off.

A 30% (£700) rent increase is pure greed enabled by a rotten housing system, plain and simple. We need rent controls, badly. But we also need an entirely new housing system that prioritises people’s need for housing over lining the pockets of the wealthy.

“The price of bread, biscuits and beer could be at risk of rising as a result of months of wet weather in the UK.” This isn’t just “wet weather”, it’s a sign of things to come if those in power don’t start taking climate change seriously. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
"People with depression or anxiety could lose sickness benefits, says UK minister" The cruelty is the point. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Homes should be a place of safety & security, not damaging to our health & wellbeing. We need a strong Decent Homes Standard for private renters, proper enforcement & robust consequences for landlords who make a profit while putting lives at risk. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
“P***-taking landlord tries to charge tenant £25 for every email she has to reply to.” This is the reality of how landlords think they can treat tenants in this country. dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-ne…
Landlords when it’s time to renew your tenancy:
Note that this supposed “clarification” gives no date for the ban on Section 21 evictions, and no date even for the assessment of the county courts that the Government says they need to do before banning S21. It’s been 5 years since they pledged to abolish Section 21. FIVE.

A 30% (£700) rent increase is pure greed enabled by a rotten housing system, plain and simple. We need rent controls, badly. But we also need an entirely new housing system that prioritises people’s need for housing over lining the pockets of the wealthy.
yesterday, as i was moving the final things out of my home following my eviction, a guy turned up who turned out to be the new tenant. turns out the landlord has bumped the rent by *£700*. a 30% increase. the greed and cruelty of landlords in this country is outrageous.
“P***-taking landlord tries to charge tenant £25 for every email she has to reply to.” This is the reality of how landlords think they can treat tenants in this country. dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-ne…
Without abolishing Section 21, we will not see a real change in renting. We will still live under fear, landlords will still hold a lot of the power. 🫤
Note that this supposed “clarification” gives no date for the ban on Section 21 evictions, and no date even for the assessment of the county courts that the Government says they need to do before banning S21. It’s been 5 years since they pledged to abolish Section 21. FIVE.

Adam, a disabled renter in Liverpool, has been evicted 4 times in 4 years, including an illegal eviction & revenge eviction after complaining about bad housing conditions. This is who the government has betrayed by gutting the Renters Reform Bill on behalf of the landlord lobby.
Little wonder the Renters (Reform) Bill will ‘not stop unscrupulous landlords’ – when these include Tory MPs. A stitch up has happened and the outlook is bleak. Read more on #RentersReformBill with comment from @ACORNunion below: thecanary.co/uk/analysis/20…

🚨🚨 We @RentersReformCo members will not accept this Renters (Reform) Bill 🚨🚨 As it enters its remaining House of Commons stages this afternoon, we are warning that in its current form the Bill "will be a failure". Read full statement below:
Class war, plain and simple.
Cost of living crisis for us. Record profits for them.
“Despite the Conservatives pledging to get rid of no-fault evictions in 2019, landlords are using it in record numbers with a 28% increase in 2023.” End Section 21. Now. bylinetimes.com/2024/04/22/no-…
ours went up by 8% a year ago and is going up another 12.5% this month. rent controls now.
NHS waiting times through the roof, poor housing conditions destroying people’s health, food costs skyrocketing. But the government has decided forcing unwell people into work is their priority.
GP’s will soon be stripped of the ability to sign people off work as part of a major government inititive to crack down on ‘sick note culture’ Rishi Sunak says people should stop 'over-medicalising the everyday challenges and worries of life' trib.al/LzeeX10
Rents are rising at almost double the rate of wages, and almost triple the amount of inflation. Rent controls now!
Average UK private rents increased by 9.2% in the 12 months to March 2024 (provisional estimate). This was up from 9.0% in the 12 months to February 2024 (revised estimate)
It’s time to kick out these vultures once and for all. Nationalise water.
Water privatisation HAS been a success… for shareholders and CEOs. The rest of us have seen our bills rise while infrastructure crumbles and sewage gets pumped into our rivers and beaches.
While out doorkocking in Tottenham, we spoke to ITV News about our campaign to #BootTheBailiffs. No one in our community should be threatened and bullied by bailiffs because they are struggling to pay their council tax. @haringeycouncil are you listening?
Great coverage of @acornharingey’s campaign to end the use of bailiffs to collect council tax debt❌ #BootTheBailiffs
Yes, @ACORNunion!
Councils using bailiffs to collect debt is a disgrace. Ineffective and inhumane at the best of times & beyond the pale in the worst cost of living crisis in a generation. ACORN will won't stand for the use of these parasites in our communities.
