5 years ago Milton Keynes was dubbed ‘tent city’ by the media. Today, no one needs to sleep rough on our streets. How did we do it? A thread by the Cabinet Member responsible 👇

🚨NEW. Suella Braverman pushes to restrict tents for rough sleepers, and proposes making it a civil office for charities to give tents to homeless via @FT with ⁦@LOS_Fisher⁩ on.ft.com/3QpJf0p

Today I asked the Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office @Number10cat about his plans to have his head scratched and fall asleep in the sun ☀️ 🐈

I’m so glad to announce that my campaign has been a success, and the £318 fee that survivors of domestic abuse needed to pay to keep their address private when seeking financial assistance has been SCRAPPED 🎉 Huge thank you @sarahsackman

Today I’ve written to @YvetteCooperMP asking the Home Office to do everything in its power to ensure Andrew and Tristan Tate face trial in the UK.

Farage and Reform have lots of questions to answer about Nigel’s former close aide and ex-Welsh Reform leader taking bribes from Russia. #Russia #Reform

For starters we didn’t make tents a civil offence. Tents are a symptom, not the cause. Firstly you need somewhere that people can go so we built a shelter on the top floor of the old bus station. On the ground floor we brought together all voluntary and statutory services 2/11

Let’s talk more about the underlying problems: lack of mental health provision, cuts in addiction treatment, lack of affordable housing and many other issues this government has made worse over 13 years in power 10/11

The hairdressers and laundry means they can regain self respect. The number of people who have gone on from the Old Bus Station into employment and their own place is incredible because of the hard work of staff and volunteers 5/11

So making tents a civil offence, creating a record is not the way to end rough sleeping Suella Braverman. Bringing together services both statutory and voluntary to embrace someone and help them up is the only road to success. 9/11

So everyone has a warm and safe bed for the night and in the morning, they have access to all the services they might need from a cuppa and a friend to a GP and mental health services. This was no easy feat to get all homeless services to work together but it creates success 3/11

Very empty opposition benches for the Crime and Policing Bill debate right now 🤔 Are Reform MPs all too busy suing each other to turn up?
