🚨 BREAKING: Homelessness in England hits new record level. 320,000 of us are now facing homelessness - up by 8% in the past year. We can’t go on like this. The solution? Build more social homes now.

🧵 We are dealing with increasing numbers of out-of-London PRS homeless offers to increasingly distant locations. A short thread on how our advice to homeless families when dealing with these offers has evolved.

We’re horrified to hear the Home Secretary describe sleeping rough as a “lifestyle choice,” while it’s her department’s policies that are pushing people onto the streets🧵 theguardian.com/society/2023…

Sleeping on the streets is NOT a lifestyle choice. We don’t have nearly enough affordable homes, rents are soaring and this is leaving people destitute and forced to sleep rough. This is a consequence of poverty. And poverty in this country has been exacerbated by policy choices

The British people are compassionate. We will always support those who are genuinely homeless. But we cannot allow our streets to be taken over by rows of tents occupied by people, many of them from abroad, living on the streets as a lifestyle choice. 1/4

Domestic abuse survivors with no recourse to public funds are not eligible for housing assistance. As a result, many are faced with an impossible choice between becoming destitute or remaining with, or returning to, the perpetrator of the abuse they have suffered. 1/2
