Parliamentary Under Secretary of State in Department For Science, Innovation and Technology.A useful thread of the discussion at the emergency meeting on the Criminal Justice Bill this week & its impact on homelessness as currently drafted👇 #UKHousing #Homelessness #CriminalJusticeReform
We've started our emergency meeting on the Criminal Justice Bill & its impact on homelessness as currently drafted. We have a brilliant panel of experts from health, a local authority perspective and with lived experience, alongside our fab co-chairs @BobBlackman @PaulaBarkerMP
Thanks to Andy from @crisis_uk for sharing his experiences of homelessness with @HomelessAPPG. The Criminal Justice Bill will have a devastating impact on homeless people. It cannot pass in its current form. Nobody should be criminalised for being homeless.
Next we have Andy from @crisis_uk. He shares he became street homeless at the age of 14 & the stigma and cruelty he experienced. He talks about his harrowing experiences of violence from members of the public & being arrested just for being on the street, on 'suspicion'
We attended the emergency @HomelessAPPG meeting today on the Criminal Justice Bill and its impact on homelessness. We raised our concerns about the Bill and are pleased to support the cross-party amendments put forward by @BobBlackman @PaulaBarkerMP and other members.

In Parliament today for @HomelessAPPG meeting on the #CriminalJusticeBill We're hearing from experts and people with lived experience on why we must stop plans to criminalise homelessness. Follow the discussion 👇👇👇

It was an honour to speak at the @HomelessLink lobby on ending homelessness together, alongside @BobBlackman, in our capacities as co-chairs for the @HomelessAPPG We are in a homelessness emergency, we need to work together to end this crisis urgently.
We had the opportunity to meet @BobBlackman in his position as Co-Chair for @HomelessAPPG - @Switchback_ldn spoke on a panel on those released from public institutions into homelessness and encouraged those in the room to advocate for our costed National Resettlement Proposal.
Really great to see the Rt Hon @BobBlackman ask @AlexChalkChelt about those released from prison into homelessness and how that impacts reoffending. Housing resettlement is getting worse for people leaving prison: Last year 7 in 10 Trainees were released from prison homeless.
We were so pleased to be invited to be on such an esteemed panel at the @HomelessAPPG to talk about people being made homeless from Home Office accommodation, the impact on individuals and organisations like @NACCOMnetwork members and solutions there are! #EndDestitution
@FelicityBuchan @PaulaBarkerMP @crisis_uk @PathwayUK @YoungBridget @NACCOMnetwork @antoniamaycross @Switchback_ldn @BobBlackman A huge thank you to everyone attending today, to the many parliamentarians and sector colleagues, demonstrating the importance of this issue. It's clear from this meeting there are plenty of solutions we can achieve working together.
Pleased to announce I’ve been elected as Co-Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group for Ending Homelessness. This is an issue I feel very passionately about and I look forward to working with my co-chair @BobBlackman and @crisis_uk to end homelessness.
Looking forward to speaking in Parliament again tomorrow about our investigation into homelessness and the housing crisis At least 131,000 children will go to bed tonight in temporary accommodation. Their plight is so rarely temporary, and neither is the impact of being homeless
Our next meeting will be a joint event with @HomelessAPPG on 11 September 1.30-3pm. Feraturing: @DanielHewittITV, @Victoria_Spratt, @crisis_uk, @Sharedhealthgm joining @BobBlackman @Siobhain_Mc to discuss the worsening temporary accommodation and homelessness crisis
Really pleased to see a new joint report from @HousingAPPG and @HomelessAPPG calling on the government to implement the #HealthyHomesPrinciples. We support the principles and believe they're necessary to ensure that all newly built homes are high quality. appghousing.org.uk/release-joint-…
There are 20,000 homes worth of empty offices and commercial buildings owned by local authorities. The new report from @HomelessAPPG and @HousingAPPG called "Rethinking Commercial to Residential Conversions" shows how we can make these into homes 🧵
Delighted to be attending this important report launch. Our Director of Policy and Social Change @CescaAlbanese is describing the important role conversions of empty units to affordable homes could play in tackling homelessness. Read the APPGs’ full report crisis.org.uk/ending-homeles…
Great to be at today's launch of the Rethinking Office to Residential Conversions report today with our Co-Chair @BobBlackman, and Chair of the APPG for @HousingAPPG @Ben_Everitt
🏡 Exciting to launch our Rethinking Office to Residential Conversions report with @BobBlackman in Parliament today following a joint inquiry from the @HousingAPPG I chair and the @HomelessAPPG
A great event launching the joint @HomelessAPPG @HousingAPPG report into Commercial to residential conversions. @sousxie2 with joint chairs @Ben_Everitt and @BobBlackman #ukhousing
Great to be launching the Rethinking Office to Residential Conversions report today with our Chair, @Ben_Everitt and Co-Chair of @HomelessAPPG, @BobBlackman.
As Vauxhall MP and Co-chair of @HomelessAPPG this is a deeply worrying trend. There can be no doubt that it is exasperating the cost of living crisis for Vauxhall residents and people across London.
We've published new research on the turbulence in London's private rental market. There has been a sharp fall in the number of properties available since the Covid-19 pandemic. Worsening housing and homelessness pressures mean the situation is turning from bad to disastrous.
Later today @sousxie2 Capital Letters CEO will be speaking at the launch of the joint @HomelessAPPG & @HousingAPPG report that we have been supporting. As covered by @insidehousing. We could create 20,000 new homes! #ukhousing #affordablehousing insidehousing.co.uk/news/empty-cou…
In London, for people in the lowest 10% of incomes, the average cost of housing, utilities and food now amounts to 143.5% of household income. Only 12% of housing in Putney is currently affordable on housing benefit. The Chancellor must end the housing benefits freeze.
Thanks to @crisisuk & @HomelessAPPG for highlighting these horrifying statistics in Parliament.
