BREAKING: At yesterday's full council meeting, Sheffield City Council confirmed plans to raise council tax on empty homes in the city - a huge win for our campaign ✊🏼✊🏼🥳
Massive shout out to all the councillors that backed the campaign throughout - let's put this policy into practice...
Any response to this from Sheffield City Council or Douglas Johnson?
Or do they plan to let rough sleeping continue to rise while council-owned homes sit empty?

Why are Sheffield City Council spending over £2 MILLION on emergency accommodation, while almost 100 council homes lay empty?
You do the maths...
