Whereas I had the security of a council flat, kids in poverty today are growing up in temporary accommodation. I’ve been in Gillingham with @naushabahkhanmp.bsky.social, speaking to families who’ve been failed by the housing crisis. Kids need homes, not hostels.

Meanwhile, I'm still reeling from the fact that Richard Tice can't find it in him to condemn someone for saying that Nigerians should be melted down to fill potholes.

Donald Trump’s comments on our brave military and armed forces are disgraceful and he should apologise. 457 British service men and women were killed in Afghanistan, the second highest number of military deaths during the conflict, while thousands were injured in the line of duty. (1/2)

.@NadhimZahawi previously said he'd be "frightened to live in a country" run by @NigelFarage. But, to be fair, that was before he was sacked as Tory chair for failing to declare a serious HMRC investigation into his tax affairs. The political circus never disappoints!

The old funding model left Medway, under real pressure Now the Government is fixing that with a fairer system that focuses on local needs & tackles deprivation This is our chance to secure the funding our community deserves. I’m fighting hard to make sure our voice is heard loud & clear

It's been a long time coming...today we are reconnecting council funding with deprivation -> www.gov.uk/government/n...

Tackling deprivation and reversing years of unfair council funding
Outdated funding formulas that penalised deprived areas for decades are being scrapped, so local people finally get the vital public services they deserve.

Gillingham is a community, not a get rich quick scheme 👉🏾I’m not opposed to all HMOs, but we need to manage the numbers through tougher local regulation ❌@property_apprentice view of Gillingham as a cash cow is damaging and wrong ✅We need an Article 4 Direction to get a grip on this issue

❗I don’t oppose the existence of #HMOs. They play a vital role in #housing students, key workers, and professionals priced out of other options. 👉🏾But when too many pop up too fast in one area, without thought for #community balance, issues follow. And people are right to be concerned.

The conversation about immigration has taken a sinister turn. It’s no longer just about policy; it’s about race. I won’t stand for it. We can’t let hate and division decide who belongs in Britain. This country is stronger, kinder, and better than that 🇬🇧 #immigration #race #sarahpochin #british

‼️Gillingham is being overrun by HMOs... & this is why It's shocking to see the town advertised as prime real estate for developers who want to cash in on "minimal licensing complexities" The unrestricted development of HMOs is damaging our communities. I want to change this
