this anti-homeless New Zealand legislation will outlaw impeding someone entering a business, begging, rough sleeping, or displaying behaviour indicating an attempt to inhabit a public place, by people as young as fourteen years old. it's criminally cruel and this conservative coalition government should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.

Some days you get the kind of win that makes Doug Ford apoplectic.

"I wish I could get that guy's address. I'll send 15 encampments in his backyard and see how he likes it. The craziest decision I've ever heard. But there are a lot of crazy decisions coming from our courts lately," Ford said.

Also: Fuck you, CBC. They were clearing the encampment FOR A PARKING LOT, MOTHERFUCKERS.

We were literally celebrating this with the KW peeps last night. They have it DOWN when it comes to pursuing the Charter challenges vis-à-vis unhoused folks. Shout out to CJC for their care as well.

"an Ontario judge ruled that residents of a Kitchener encampment can stay. The decision, delivered Thursday at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, stated that the Region of Waterloo cannot remove the residents living at the downtown Kitchener encampment because it violates their Charter of Rights."

“European support is needed for all municipalities, not only the biggest ones, but also small and medium-sized communities.

Only then can investments remain financially sustainable in the long term and help deliver affordable housing for all.”

“For Luxembourg, the European Union has often been a driver of social progress.

We should use the current momentum around housing in Europe to push for further progress and help solve our national housing crisis.”

“The socialists face a major challenge: we must not confuse the means with the objective.

Regulating Airbnb is a means. Making affordable housing a fundamental right for all must remain the objective.”

At @LISERinLUX, researchers, local leaders and progressives are discussing one of Europe’s biggest political failures: housing.

Because when even wealthy countries like Luxembourg struggle with affordability, this is no longer a local issue. It’s a European one.
