No mention of housing.

There is no long term vision for society without fixing the housing crisis. Housing is the foundation of a healthy life & whoever the next government is needs to make it a priority. That’s exactly what ACORN will keep fighting for. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

πŸ₯ͺ Just seen someone steal food from Pret. Is it wrong to steal? Yes.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Is it more wrong than a wealthy country somehow not being able to ensure everyone can eat? Probably not.

πŸ’Έ A universal basic income is a great way to do that.

πŸ—³οΈ Let's demand that from our politicians.

Saw a suggestion that expanding ULEZ is a tax on the poor, because if you're poor, you're more likely to have an older vehicle.

That completely ignores the fact that most poor people don't even have the luxury of having a car.

It's all framing. Maybe this is too - who knows.

I've spent a long time frustrated that I couldn't get my code to display on my phone with Expo Go.

The feeling of success when you finally figure out a solution and getting it working is wonderful.

Now to make that app do something!

Yesterday, we went to our favourite restaurant for dinner. As we were waiting, chatting with the owner, our friend turns up - out of nowhere!

We ended up eating together and catching up

I imagine this might happen more often if 15 minute cities were in effect - how cool :)

Why do people think it's okay to just play their phone on loud on the train?

I think it's absolutely fascinating that some people are so either uncaring or unaware of their surroundings

✊ We campaign for £15 per hour minimum wage. They -eventually- say okay.

⏳ Time passes.

✊ We campaign for £18 per hour minimum wage. They -eventually- say okay.

πŸ” That cycle will keep going.

πŸ—³οΈ It only stops when we stop capitalism and democratise our workplaces.

So much of my life is on hold right now.

All just waiting for when I have a place in London again.

Maybe this offer will be the one...

πŸ—³οΈ Why do I support changes to the GRA?

πŸ«‚ It's simple. I've listened to the trans community.

❌ Trans people are held to a higher standard than others by this process. That's not fair. I want to change that.

πŸŽ‰ I can only assume that Labour want to be like the Tories so much, that they too have decided to try and destroy their hopes of ever being in government again with this ridiculous campaign.

Β£145m is in fact a lot less than Β£37bn spent on test and trace

Maybe what Labour are attempting will work

But I feel like going after literal corruption might be an easier route

Flat update:

Saw a flat today for the price of our ever expanding budget (there is nothing affordable, and we have to accept that)

We put in an identical offer to another couple. The letting agent told us this and asked if we wanted to offer more. We did not. We lost the flat.

Awaabs Law should be extended to the private sector too.

Kids living with damp & mould or other forms of dangerous disrepair in private housing shouldn’t have to either.
