In the next 5 years we'll hand £70bn in housing benefit (HB) to private landlords.
In some parts of the country, over £1 in every £3 in ALL rent paid is paid through HB.
Around £1 in every £5 in HB goes to landlords providing homes that are poor quality, or even hazardous.⬇️

ALT A local authority level map of England that shows 'rent subsidised per £100 in rent paid'; showing that in 5 local authorities over £31 in every £100 in rent paid is paid through housing benefit, £21-30 is paid if 59 local authorities, £11-20 is paid in 157 local authorities, as is £10 or less in 85 local authorities. The text on the graph reads: In some post-industrial and coastal areas, over £1 in every £3 of private rent is paid for with housing benefit. Map shows the estimated share of private rents which are paid for with housing benefits by local authority area: on average across England we estimate £15 in every £100 in rent is paid through Housing Benefit.

🚨 Awaab's Law consultation ends soon.
I've made an animated video covering all details. Can you lend a hand by sharing this thread of videos & links?
Critical for social housing tenants to know about the consultation and engage with it if they can.

The 90% need to know how the last @UKLabour government funded the NHS
The sharp fall in health investment began in 2010
Across the UK as a whole, only 10% of people think their government has the right policies for the NHS.
Our latest survey with @IPSOSUK looks at public perception of the NHS and social care.

Government will hand £58 billion of public money to private landlords over the next 4 yrs.
That's 5x more than spending on new affordable homes!
Renter or not, we're all paying the price for the privatisation of our housing system.
Build social homes!
