Packed mass lobby of parliament today to challenge the government’s earned settlement proposals that will mean some people waiting decades to properly rebuild their lives

Happy Shrove Tuesday, Chinese new year and night before Ramadan! Diversity at its finest.
Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.
The government has published its homelessness strategy for England. This was a vital opportunity to tackle asylum and immigration policies that drive homelessness and destitution but it fell short naccom.org.uk/a-national-p...
Some rare good news!
Following a legal challenge by Deighton Pierce Glynn and significant pressure from our sector inc. @homelesslink.bsky.social, until 16 Jan the Govt has agreed to extend the move-on period for newly-granted refugees facing street homelessness to 56 days.

Grateful to @theguardian.com for covering the most recent @naccomnetwork.bsky.social data briefing which charts the continued increase in homelessness experienced by refugees, people seeking asylum and other migrants, driven by hostile Government policies.
Very proud of the @naccomnetwork.bsky.social team and network for this data launch, but the reading is grim 👇🏻
In summary: hostile Government policies = increased homelessness for refugees, people seeking asylum and other migrants
#EndDestitution
The Home Office has started taking action on cases of Syrian refugees with pending settlement applications. People are being sent letters saying they have 21 days to provide evidence as to why they should not be returned to Syria. Panic is spreading.

This plan for housing is:
- Better for people seeking asylum
- Better for wider communities
- Cheaper for the taxpayer
Let’s use public money to buy quality homes for all people in our communities – not to fill the pockets of the mega wealthy.

Hate seeks to divide us. But hope endures when we stand together. Our solidarity is with the Jewish community today. #britainstandstogether
Hate, it has caused a lot of problems in the world, but it has not solved one yet.
Love and solidarity 🙏🏻
