PSP Investments and its partner Starlight continue to seek rent hikes totalling almost 10% over 2 years in Thorncliffe Park and are pursuing the eviction of hundreds of people protesting their above guideline rent increases
PSP Investments and its partner Starlight continue to seek rent hikes totalling almost 10% over 2 years in Thorncliffe Park and are pursuing the eviction of hundreds of people protesting their above guideline rent increases
Tenants of 71, 75, and 79 Thorncliffe Park rallied yesterday to mark one on rent strike in protest of above guideline rent increases we can’t afford. We will continue our fight until Starlight and PSP Investments withdraw the above guideline rent increases at our buildings.
Fantastic action - thanks to all who are involved and massive solidarity from SHAC!

Packed house to #KeepLAHoused, but we got in. @LAHD___ did a dirty deal with our landlord that lets him evict us for rent debt over our four year rent strike. Solidarity with tenants across the city who are struggling with rent debt.
maybe not the worst, but certainly the most annoying thing about drama in scottish politics is all the utterly clueless london lobby journalists deciding to bless us with their hot takes about parties, people and issues they otherwise absolutely never engage with
We have done it, we will do it again.
@no_evictions *URGENT* We've just had a call that a Home Office deportation raid is ongoing at Denmilne Street NOW. Anyone nearby?
Problems with your landlord? Join us at the @oaklibrary Main Branch on Sunday, May 5! OTU community counselors will be on-hand to answer any questions you have about your rights as a tenant. Our clinics are free and open to all Oakland tenants!
The point of protest isn’t to make ppl in power feel comfortable—“civility” is often a code word for “stop protesting.” This comes up every year when tenants protest high rent increases at the Rent Guidelines Board mtgs. Glad I got the chance to talk about it w/ @PIX11News
This tomorrow at @gmlawcentre. A sequel of sorts to the Manchester launch, and probably the last event on the book in the city - so if you missed the one in Feb then come down! eventbrite.co.uk/e/resisting-th…
One year into our rent strike, our fight against Starlight and PSP Investments’ rent hikes continues. "For us, we're barely even able to afford rent. What we need is … for the landlord to withdraw the above guideline rent increases,” said Sameer Beyan. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Good cause laws are only controversial because they truly give tenants the power to fight for stable housing. The City of Albany was the first to pass a local law and we look forward to being the first to opt-into state law. We know we won’t be the last. timesunion.com/capitol/articl…

'They promised this five years ago' Hear how @BenTwomeyUK explains the weaknesses of the Renters Reform Bill.
PSP Investments and its partner Starlight continue to seek rent hikes totalling almost 10% over 2 years in Thorncliffe Park and are pursuing the eviction of hundreds of people protesting their above guideline rent increases
One year into our rent strike, our fight against Starlight and PSP Investments’ rent hikes continues. "For us, we're barely even able to afford rent. What we need is … for the landlord to withdraw the above guideline rent increases,” said Sameer Beyan. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
All our struggles are connected.
SPOTTED: Michael Kadisha of K3 Holdings — slumlord displacing rent-controlled tenants all across LA — supporting genocide at the zionist counter-protest at UCLA.
Tenants of 71, 75, and 79 Thorncliffe Park rallied yesterday to mark one on rent strike in protest of above guideline rent increases we can’t afford. We will continue our fight until Starlight and PSP Investments withdraw the above guideline rent increases at our buildings.
Fantastic action - thanks to all who are involved and massive solidarity from SHAC!
The Right to the City: @HousRebellion encampment outside City Hall tonight to highlight the housing crisis across all boroughs in the city… 📣 Housing is a human right 🔉 @SadiqKhan @MayorofLondon @Kwajotweneboa @NEF @dannydorling @homes4alluk @emptyhomes @TTBrixton @Shelter
🚨 Current : on-going raids . Please update us with any information regarding these locations and others.
Crazy numbers come from RGB itself. To ensure owners make same inflated profits RGB suggests major increases in its PIOC report. When you don’t listen to millions of tenant voters, they find ways to be heard.
The point of protest isn’t to make ppl in power feel comfortable—“civility” is often a code word for “stop protesting.” This comes up every year when tenants protest high rent increases at the Rent Guidelines Board mtgs. Glad I got the chance to talk about it w/ @PIX11News
Politics is about building a social consensus around your ideas, not blindly following the narratives set by others. Right-wing parties understand this extremely well. Humza's advisors - like Starmer's - have rotted their brains with too much West Wing.

At yesterday’s Kids Seder in the Streets, we gathered for singing & story outside the Brooklyn Public Library. Then we marched through the farmers market singing and chanting until we reached Sen. Schumer’s block, where Brooklyn kids asked him four questions… 📸Noah Levine
This is why we need to go on a city wide rent strike. My building has been on one for almost three years now. Our landlord is literally afraid to come out of hiding because he knows that he might just be arrested. 😆
