Moving Lives — T4K Jan Update

Happy New Year. I have say that it does feel that 2026 started a very long time ago even if my calendar says that it is still January. Things are tough. The Home Office machine has crept slowly back into gear. They are making decisions, but unlike the last backlog clearing exercise, those decisions are negative and of poor quality. It is overloading the tribunals and there simply isn’t capacity in the legal aid sector to ensure that people have representation. The net result is an awful lot of homelessness. Even when people win, the Home Office want you out of your accommodation in 28 days (if you follow the link, you will see that they do not always get their way. It doesn’t help much). It pushes the burden onto the council. The council will do their best to avoid it, the voluntary sector and the community picks up the pieces.
