I remember when the NLC campaigned for the abolition of leasehold. Their demands have been watered down since they got their gongs. Funny, that.

What do you mean you’ve hired the housing director that was in place at the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea in the lead-up to the Grenfell fire which killed 72 people? Leading a department that treated residents like shit. Have Barnet seniors completely lost their minds?

Yeh, we know. The real question is, why doesn’t government do anything about this? Housing Associations are out of control and have been for years. They need much stricter regulation and much closer oversight.

FOI reveals lack of government oversight of shared ownership model, campaign groups say

The government does not collect data on shared owner resales and repossessions, and there are gaps in the information it holds on back-to-back staircasing.

Lord Fuller: “Peers have heard how [registered social landlords] have been caught out behaving in a predatory manner with instances of sharp practice and acting far removed from the social purpose they say guides their every activity. The House of Lords saw through this bluster”

Good riddance to her. Dreadful woman. Mind you, looking at housing executives, I’m not sure her replacement, whoever they are, will be much of an improvement.

You do have to wonder why @SadiqKhan and @tomcopley are giving housing associations £millions of public money to keep building when no-one is interested in the housing they’ve already built.

I checked how much my "charitable" housing association is spending on 'incentives' to sell their newbuilds. Wild.

The population of London has increased by almost 40% in 30 years. The powers that be had to find something for all the surplus people to do, and so - ta da! The G15

In 2023 @andyburnham thought that #UBI was a great idea. Maybe now he’s PM he can implement it?

“I love my home, garden and the area. I just wish it wasn’t shared ownership. I feel like it was almost mis-sold to me as affordable housing, but instead, I am trapped in a situation where I am paying more and more.” ⬇️

Frustrated shared ownership buyers feel they were wrongly sold homes marketed as affordable, but escalating costs have left them struggling to sell

Hopefully the new Housing Ombudsman will be a bit more effective than the last one, but I’m not going to hold my breath on that.

To anyone who seriously thinks that Andy Burnham is the answer to [insert problem here] and especially anything to do with leasehold, shared ownership, or social housing - you’re going to be very disappointed.

The appointment of the despicable James Purnell as Andy Burnham's chief of staff is the clearest signal yet that disabled people are going to be Burnham's target.

If @TeresaONeillLBB thinks that expanding the shared ownership scheme is a good idea, she hasn’t been paying attention - and I cordially invite her to think again.
