Non-profit coop housing has been working for decades in Europe. It is no different from good govt social housing , also working well in Europe for decades (I spent my early years there in social housing in the late 50s early 60s). Long term agreements in some schems are also decades long and a few are no different from home ownership passed on to kids.

It’s all doable, cost effective, socially responsible and a godsend to low wage workers and those who can least afford housing (there is still the issue of waiting lists because there’s never enough …)

Current housing issues in Australia, just like poverty in Australia IS A POLITICAL DECISION. The sooner the electorate understands this, the sooner we can fix it at the ballot box.

Rent controls should be a first step.

What we really need is no more private landlords: you either own one place to live in, or you rent from the local authority.

Private rent and property speculation are wrong.

NDP plan legislative changes with protections for Manitoba renters
Manitoba is planning legislative changes that could enhance renter protections and dovetail with coming regulatory changes the NDP say will improve rent controls and limit above-guideline rent increases.

78% of the UK supports rent controls. But why control a scam when you can abolish it?

People should think bigger on housing then rent controls. The Green Party has it right: the entire concept of rent is a con.

The requirement for "balance" in this Beeb piece about possible rent controls in Scotland ends up sounding quite uncritically pro landlord to me and fails to expand all the possible options. #news #RentControls #Scotland #UK

Last week, I was invited onto Kildare Today live with Hannah Kelly on KFM!

We discussed the Housing Crisis, my article on the Journal about the governments "how to cope with moving home" video, and being in CATU - Community Action Tenants' Union.

The plan to make landlords potentially pay National Insurance on rental income is long overdue. While it’s right that landlords contribute their fair share, average rents in Northern Ireland have soared by 45% in the past decade. This extra cost must not be passed onto tenants who are already struggling to keep a roof over their heads. Tax fairness cannot come at the expense of affordable homes.

I just signed the petition “Introduce caps on how much landlords can raise rent: Protect struggling families like mine” and wanted to see if you could help by adding your name.

Our goal is to reach 75,000 signatures and we need more support. You can read more and sign the petition here:
