Today’s annual h’ness stats are utterly grim: for the 10th year in a row the no of kids in temp accomm has increased; there’s now 16,300 households in temp, up 9% & there’s been a staggering 1659% increase in cases where no temp could be provided. Our housing system is broken

Today's housing and homelessness statistics are absolutely grim. We're in the perfect storm of a collapse in housebuilding amid surging and record homelessness. Every effort across Government must go towards ending our #HousingEmergency.
