When you’re stranded on a float outside @GreggsOfficial at #birminghampride2021 making sad puppy eyes at the food, & the staff come to the rescue with a sausage roll! Our heroes x
All ears to learn the Affordable Housing Commission’s preliminary conclusions. An irrefutable reminder that the grail of homeownership is not a cure for unsuitable housing; and crucially, that “affordable” is relative. #NationalHousingSummit #affordablehousing – at City of London, London
“You can’t build your way to affordability”; the country needs a housing offer as diverse as its population. More homes is good, more choice is better. #NationalHousingSummit #inclusionweek – at City of London, London
I’d always felt I embraced #WorldBookDay wholeheartedly. But this is the 1st year I’ve been able to say I plaited a wig for a potato in preparation.
The ICC has more than a touch of MCEscher going on, now I come to think of it. (The sense of achievement when you find the right auditorium...!)

Andrew Selous MP quotes stats illustrating that the number of dischargeable patients unable to leave hospital due to lack of suitable accommodation/care equates to 38 entire hospitals at any one time! #ageuk #ConservativeConference2018
Great to hear housing associations namechecked to help build a new generation of social housing #Lab2018
Looking forward to a stimulating few days 🌹 #lab18 – at Liverpool, England
A stirring synopsis of Housing for the Many from @JohnHealey_MP. Personally, the concept of linking ‘affordable’ rents to actual household incomes strikes me as an absolute no-brainer. Living Rents make perfect sense & are much needed #nhf18 – at Lambeth, London
