"If there is anything more disgusting than the sight of a half-billionaire rolling up his sleeves for a 'benefits crackdown' in the middle of a cost of living crisis... I can’t think of it": @zoesqwilliams on Sunak's proposed disability reforms theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
🚨Emergency legal update - What we know about the Rwanda Act and Treaty so far🚨 It's been reported by the press that the Home Office starts a surprise 2-week operation to detain people for the Rwanda flight on 29 April. Read our Rwanda plan update. ⬇️ righttoremain.org.uk/what-we-know-a…
Any fees your private landlord charges which are not 'permitted payments' may be unlawful. If you have paid a prohibited fee, your landlord cannot evict you using #Section21 until they have paid you back. If you're in this position, get legal advice! england.shelter.org.uk/professional_r…
Zero hours contracts, uncapped rent increases, and the threat of #Section21 eviction. Three legal structures that combine to make lives harder - none of them legal in Germany. It's time to pass laws to enable stable work and a secure home. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
This is a very good summary of why so many tenant representatives are no longer supporting the government's #RentersReformBill. The Bill in its current form won't make tenants' homes more secure or affordable, and the rest is window dressing.

Families are being torn apart, or threatened with it, because they are homeless. They are victims of a broken housing system. @WiltsLaw and @gmlawcentre spoke to @insidehousing about the "coercive and cruel" council tactics at play. lght.ly/14g7kc2
"Responses using Freedom of Information legislation from 83 councils showed that families are still being separated where a central reason for the decision was the family’s homelessness." insidehousing.co.uk/news/at-least-…
🚨🚨 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:
My latest article shows that the Universal Credit conditionality regime harms mothers' employment prospects and caring responsibilities regardless of social class, but sometimes the negative effects are exacerbated for working class mothers cambridge.org/core/journals/…
This is what happens when prices outpace wages. The free market can't fix the problems it creates: we need price controls and better regulation of profiteering, or quality of life will continue to fall. theguardian.com/money/2024/apr…

Really positive judgment here, pushing back against punishing workers for taking strike action.
Really positive judgment here, pushing back against punishing workers for taking strike action.
Judgment has been handed down this morning in the matter of Secretary of State for Business and Trade (Respondent) v Mercer (Appellant) UKSC 2022/0080: supremecourt.uk/cases/uksc-202…
Again, the disparity between the results of white and BAME SQE candidates is huge. In January 24, candidates were 30% less likely to pass the SQE if they were black than if they were white. These must be structural issues with the SQE and its prep courses. What is being done?
Following the publication of a new report, ‘Zero Choices: Swapping Zero Hour Contracts for Secure, Flexible Working’, GMLC campaign volunteer Seb Dawson writes on zero hours contracts and what you can do to oppose insecure and poor quality work. gmlaw.org.uk/2024/04/16/zer…

There is nothing 'encouraging' about forcing sick people to comply with the DWP job-search regime, on pain of getting sanctioned. Sometimes people are just too sick to work the kind of jobs available to them. We need to respect that, not punish them. bbc.co.uk/news/explainer…

There are 145,800 homeless children living in temporary accommodation - the highest ever recorded and up 15% on last year There are 112,660 homeless households - up 12% in a year and the highest on record
Tonight, we’re in Parliament to show MPs the shocking reality of homelessness and how they can play a part in ending it. Nearly 3,000 of you invited your MP to attend – thank you! Here’s our challenge to MPs: are you in for a future free from homelessness? #MakeHistory
"If there is anything more disgusting than the sight of a half-billionaire rolling up his sleeves for a 'benefits crackdown' in the middle of a cost of living crisis... I can’t think of it": @zoesqwilliams on Sunak's proposed disability reforms theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Good people on Twitter - can you shre this info? Right to Remain is a micro org - we have no money for fancy digital campaigner or whatever. Our comms is literally our staff members occasionally tweeting. But we are working with real people whose voices we hear every day.
🔥Urgent #Liverpool & #Manchester Solidarity Actions🔥 Say NO to #detention and the #Rwanda plan! Today, the government started a "Rwanda Operation". The operation will target people attending reporting centres across the country, as well as through raids on our community.
This is terrifying. News that @ukhomeoffice will launch a surprise operation to detain migrants including asylum seekers across the UK on Monday in preparation for deportation to #Rwanda We must stand together with migrants to oppose this cruel plan theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…
We will respond to the PIP Green Paper as soon as it's published. But for now, despite the headlines, remember that nothing will change instantly. There is a long, long way to go before any changes come in.
🚨Emergency legal update - What we know about the Rwanda Act and Treaty so far🚨 It's been reported by the press that the Home Office starts a surprise 2-week operation to detain people for the Rwanda flight on 29 April. Read our Rwanda plan update. ⬇️ righttoremain.org.uk/what-we-know-a…
Today, the Government have yet again gone on the attack by singling out Disabled people as a burden on the benefits system. Utterly untrue, but we continue to be the whipping community for ALL government economic failure. Enough. This is just cruelty. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Many of the UK's 1.1 million people on zero-hour contacts as their main form of employment: ⚠️ Lack job security ⚠️ Lack a baseline income ⚠️ Lack consistency in working hours @gmlawcentre show how you can get involved to support worker protections. lght.ly/1fgl4o5
Recovery of overpayments should be halted. Roll out of UC should be halted. Universal Basic Income should be implemented. Research and common sense say it works.
