The King's Speech at the State Opening of Parliament mentioned housing-related matters impacting housing associations. The Renters (Reform) Bill - focusing on private rented homes' security and regulation - affects housing associations through changes in assured tenancies. Missing from the speech though were commitments to build more affordable homes and specific measures on homelessness.

An Effective Leader, Determined to Create a More Equitable World for All - Changing the Political Economy for the Common Good
Housing First, the idea that providing apartments for unhoused populations is not only the right moral choice, but also the fiscally responsible one. Housing provides a safe space where all the other social resources can be targeted efficiently, also preventing undue strains on our emergency services provided by hospitals, police officers, and fire departments. Take a look at the success story below from the City of Helsinki and leave any thoughts in the comments: #housingfirst #communitydevelopment #commongood https://lnkd.in/dxKVAmtA

Experienced leader, organiser, campaigner, trustee. Passionate about people. Committed to the truth.
Simple. More funding into building more houses - social and affordable - and quickly.
We’re calling on all political parties to commit to ending all forms of homelessness. So, as the Labour party kick off their conference in Liverpool this week, we asked people there to put this challenge to Keir Starmer. Share so he sees it. #MakeHistory

Being unhoused is enough of a punishment. Last week, the Supreme Court decided in Grants Pass v. Johnson that communities nationwide should be able to fine, ticket or arrest individuals experiencing homelessness, even when adequate shelter is not accessible. Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor London Breed have expressed approval for this ruling, which may impact unhoused communities in San Francisco. We stand in solidarity with our allies and fellow civil rights groups like the Coalition On Homelessness and the ACLU of Northern California in opposing this decision. Homelessness is not solved by criminalization, but rather, by safe and affordable housing. This ruling diverts attention from the real issues: lack of affordable housing, inadequate social services, and systemic inequalities. We urge our leaders to focus on proven strategies like permanent supportive housing and addressing the underlying causes of housing insecurity and homelessness. We urge our community to do the same. #HousingJustice #HousingForAll #AffordableHousing #SanFrancisco #BayArea
