Successive governments have failed to address social care funding leaving us with a completely unsustainable situation where social care is paid for by council tax. Make sure you hold political parties to account on their policies or lack of policies when you vote.
Over half of council tax goes on social care. What's the principled case for social care being paid from local taxation?

More bad news for residents struggling with the cost of living crisis. Far from easing the burden of costs Labour are adding pressure on to household expenditure. Residents canβt afford Labour with bills, food prices, council tax and rent all going up.

Another sign of Labour failing Southwark residents. With three Labour leaders in as many weeks, the second worst rating by the Regulator of Social Housing and a Β£6m overspend on major works on Devon Mansions, Canada Estate & Kirby Estate we canβt afford Labour chaos.
#Southwark Council received the third highest number of #ombudsman complaints of any council in the country. New council leader Sarah King said she was βsorry that our services fell below the standards that our residents deserveβ.

Sincere condolences to the families of those who lost their lives and the third victim who was injured.
Self-made businessman who rose from postie to property tycoon named as fatal victim of quadruple #Bermondsey stabbing, alongside his son. His 27-year-old son was a keen rugby player and was embarking on a career with his father in Bermondsey.

Powerful overview of the shocking mismanagement of the major works on Devon Mansions, Canada Estate and Kirby Estate from Lib Dem Councillor Jane Salmon into the reports on the over Β£6m overspend and poor quality works.
ICYMI: watch as Cllr Jane Salmon stuns the housing scrutiny committee into silence with a powerful speech about the major works scandals. We need proper accountability - so we're calling for these reports to come back to OSC, and for Arica House to get the same investigations.
