HANE ESTATE AGENTS RUN OFF SCARED 🚩🐔 Our member requested a viewing for a property through Hane Estate Agents. She was told the landlord doesn't accept universal credit claimants. This is discrimination, and we won't stand for it.

The government recently announced plans to make some of the biggest cuts to disability benefits on record. These benefits keep people alive. It's predicted that these changes could see up to 1.2 million people losing support of between £4.2k and £6.3k/year over the coming years.

Hundred year waits. 1.3 million families on the wait list. For every social house built, two are lost to the Right to Buy. Until the government reckons with this, this will continue. End Right to Buy. Build council houses!

Huge success this weekend as we marched on Haringey's letting agents and demanded fairer renting. We had a brave estate agent promising they won't break the law, but we still want better! Expect more visits, more action, and more wins in the borough soon! 🚩💥📣

If you’re a care worker, there’s not a single place you can afford to rent in the entire country. Rent control now.

🚨 New polling from
@cmmonwealth.bsky.social
shows that support for rent controls outnumbers opposition to it across ALL tenure types. Rent controls don’t just make sense, they’re popular too!
