Join Fuel Poverty Action on Budget Day to stop cold weather deaths

Homes for All is supporting this London protest on the day that the government will set out its plans for the economy.

Throughout austerity, the COVID-19 pandemic and the ‘cost of living’ crisis, government’s policies have actively contributed to hundreds of thousands of avoidable deaths. Join us to demand an end to deaths fuelled by poverty.

We will protest in London alongside Fuel Poverty Action, UNITE the union, National Pensioners Convention and others. We urge our supporters in other parts of the country to join other protests planned in:
Barnsley
Birmingham
Carlisle
Exeter
Glasgow
Leeds
Manchester
Norwich
Portsmouth
Sheffield

Housing campaigners urge Labour Councillors to adopt the 5 Point Plan

Homes for All supporters lobby Labour Councillors at Warwick University, Coventry on Saturday 10 February 2024

Housing campaigners traveled to Coventry on Saturday 10 February to leaflet and lobby the Labour Party local government conference and to encourage Councillors to support the 5 Point Plan for council housing. The broad-based action was supported by SHAC, Homes for Us (NEF) and others.

Whilst we were met with a generally positive response to the campaign with Councillors wanting to see housing prioritised for their constituents – concerns were raised around the Labour leadership’s failure to announce any strategy to tackle the housing crisis.

What is clear though, is that campaigners are committed to building from this action and ensuring that housing is pushed up the political agenda in the forthcoming general election. We know that the past 14 years has resulted in an acute housing crisis which is unsustainable and requires a radical change in housing policy. We need to keep on building a united housing movement and fight for decent, safe and secure housing for all.
