Excellent SHAPE meeting last night
🔥Agreed to support any local union campaigns against Southwark's £102M of cuts
🔥High fives about Berkeley Homes not appealing their failed development plans for Aylesham Centre
🔥Continue to build SHAPE as a coalition of local campaigns
Well done to all. The battle of Peckham ends in abject defeat for greedy developers.
Let's not forget the only real answer to the housing emergency is #councilhousing
Any developer who refuses to provide it doesn't deserve an approval.
LATEST
💥High Court judge has denied court date for the Berkeley Homes' Aylesham case.
💥BH not appealing this decision.
💥Not sure what next, but end of the road for this proposal.
💥Thank you everyone who's worked so hard and supported our campaign.
💥Keep in touch

We need the Government focused on improving lives.
Developers donate millions to UK politics and lobby against decent energy efficiency standards.
They shouldn't be able to buy influence to lower living standards.
Think we should ban developer donations? Sign my petition. 👇

Taking down the racist myths pedalled by Farage. Well done @PeteApps
Migrants didn't cause the housing crisis.
Nigel Farage’s housing policy is a racist misrepresentation of what social housing is and who gets it

MPs in a side‑room just voted to strip back democracy.
Elected councillors and local people will be sidelined in shaping their own future.
Nobody voted Labour to lose power over shaping the place they live.
We promised to empower people. This does the opposite.

The UaHell campaign at LCC in The Elephant had bees righteously launched outside as prospective students came for the Open Day! 🤟🏽🎉
Students, staff and local campaigns all revved up to continue pushing LCC for accountability on staff cuts & wages, anti racism, trans rights...

Says it all…
From Glasgow to Belfast yesterday was a crucial day of mobilisation against the far right.
A mass movement can drive them back & defend the unity of our communities & workplaces.
Notting Hill Genesis. When housing working class people is just not convenient, sell of their homes to a worse outfit and get them evicted.
In South London dozens of private renters are being evicted after their landlord - an affordable private rent provider - sold their entire estate to property developer
Eviction notices arrived just as the government’s ban on Section 21 became law
Full investigation from me @theipaper

Yes indeed. Only #councilhousing can solve the emergency. Not the #wronghousing
“The places building most housing have mysteriously produced the highest vacancy” says Chris Bailey of the charity Action on Empty Homes, “We’re building the wrong housing, it’s that simple. Towers of luxury apartments don’t house poor or homeless people.” theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…
Southwark DCH hosting this protest...
🚩🚩Around 25 people protested at 9am outside the OKR Area Action Plan Examination in Public.
