Thank you, Jack and fat B, it's much appreciated. Unfortunately, the signatures are going up very slowly, perhaps because she's just one person, not a face in the news, and not a big issue that is the subject of a wider campaign, like fracking or Trump. And yet something of this small size, a personal case, is where people really can make a difference - if there are enough people. Thank you again.

Thanks a shame, ChanteyLass, I didn't realise there were restrictions, but thank you so much for trying.

I tried to sign but the petition site is not accepting US postal codes.

One story I read just before Christmas touched a nerve and, as a result, I've done something I've never done before: started an online petition. It concerns Arleen Matthews, now 48 and at the age her mother died of the illness she has herself, a widow of 5 years, with a son at college and not earning enough to pay her rent. She works for a housing organisation and has been suspended, in a cruel irony, for becoming homeless herself. My petition is for her to reinstated with immediate effect, the least she needs to gain a foothold on her life. The story and petition to Homes for Haringey is here.

You can read the full story here.

I hope you'll feel able to sign and pass this email on to others to do the same.

Thank you for reading.
