Housing provider launches charity to support homeless people in London

A new charity that will support homeless people in London has launched today.

Arlington Futures will operate in seven London boroughs including Camden, Hackney and Haringey, and will specialise in providing education, training and creative programmes to homeless people.

The charity has been set up by Arlington, a not-for-profit affordable housing provider owned by the One Housing Group.

Arlington uses the Times Square model pioneered by the organisation Common Ground in New York, US, to tackle homelessness. Under the model, providers offer high-quality accommodation for homeless people, social enterprises, businesses and cost-effective accommodation for young professionals or other low-income workers.

Arlington mainly operates in Camden but the charitable arm hopes to raise funds to open a centre in central London that will provide accommodation and support for more than 100 homeless people.

Kevin Beirne, director of housing, care and support at One Housing Group, said: "This is an excellent step forward for Arlington. Our holistic approach to tackling homelessness makes us different.

"We don?t give a hand out, we give a hand up through our onsite care and support alongside training and employment opportunities to help residents get back on their feet."

The charity was formerly registered as Community Action with the Charity Commission but changed its name in April.

Defying military, Egypt's president orders parliament to reconvene

Mohamed Abd El Ghany / Reuters

Supporters of Egypt's Mohamed Morsi cheer with a sign that reads "All of us with your right decision President Morsi" in Tahrir Square in Cairo on Monday.

By msnbc.com staff and news services

Egypt's new president on Sunday ordered a parliament dominated by his Islamist party to reconvene, challenging the authority of the generals who had dissolved the assembly in line with a court order.?

President Mohamed Morsi's decree appeared to catch off guard the generals who handed power to him on June 30.

In the first sign of an imminent crisis, the Supreme Council ofthe Armed Forces, the formal name of the body grouping the nation'stop generals, held an "emergency meeting" shortly after Morsi's decree was announced by the official news agency. A?council member, declining to be named, told Reuters the generals had not been given prior warning.?


The military had been running Egypt since Hosni Mubarak was ousted last year. But, shortly before the handover to the elected president, the army put some curbs on the presidency and gave itself legislative powers.?

The president's decision hands those powers back to a parliament that was led by his allies in the Muslim Brotherhood.?

Mohammed Morsi officially became the president of Egypt on Saturday, as a new era of government takes shape. NBC's Kate Snow reports.

After a little more than a week in office, Morsi's move highlights the power struggle likely to define his term, pitting long repressed Islamists against generals used to calling the shots and an establishment full of Mubarak-era officials.?

Meanwhile, Egypt's benchmark stock index?plunged 5.5 percent in early trade on Monday after Morsi's move, with at least?half of the index's 30 stocks were suspended for?half an hour after they fell by more than allowed?under exchange rules.

Fresh legal wrangle
Morsi's move also threatens a fresh legal wrangle over whether Morsi can overrule a decision by the Supreme Constitutional Court to dissolve parliament, creating more uncertainty at a time when the economy is creaking after 17 months of political turmoil.?

"President Mohamed Morsi ordered the reconvening of the elected parliament to hold sessions," according to a presidential statement read out by Morsi's aide Yasser Ali.?

Saad Husseini, a senior member of the Brotherhood, said he did not believe the military would challenge Morsi's decree.?

As Morsi takes symbolic oath, many fear the 'Islamization of Egyptian society'

"We are confident the military council will not drag the country into a political whirlpool," he said.?

This was a significant move on the part of Morsi and the Brotherhood, according to Dr. Omar Ashour, a scholar at the Brookings Doha Center and director of the Middle East Politics Graduate Studies Program at the University of Exeter.

"This may end being a game of 'chicken' (to see) who withdraws his decision first," he said in a comment emailed to msnbc.com.?

Analysts said they had not expected an easy relationship between the army and the Islamist president, but most believed Morsi would tread cautiously to avoid any swift escalation. The Brotherhood has repeatedly said it does not want confrontation.?

Journalists Mona Eltahawy and Ethar El-Katatney provide updates on the developments in Egypt where newly elected president Mohammed Morsi has assumed power over the country.

"This is an early conflict. Everyone was expecting this to happen but not now, unless this decision was taken in agreement with the army council, but I doubt this," political analyst Mohamed Khalil?said.

Morsi's decree was announced shortly after he received his first official U.S. visitor in the presidential palace, Deputy Secretary of State William Burns, whose country gives $1.3 billion of aid to Egypt's military every year.?

Burns praised Egypt's progress but said there was more to be done. "It will be critical to see a democratically elected parliament in place and an inclusive process to draft a new constitution that upholds universal rights," Burns said after meeting Morsi and before the decree was issued.?

Early vote?
After a call for a show of support by the Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party, with the biggest bloc in parliament, a few hundred people gathered in Cairo's Tahrir Square. "We love you Morsi," they chanted, along with "Down with military rule."?

Morsi has resigned from both the Brotherhood and its party.

In his decree, Morsi called for an early parliamentary election for a new assembly within 60 days of the nation approving a new constitution, which has still to be drafted.?

Post-revolution Egyptians to US: Stay out

That suggested a possible attempt at compromise by indicating the assembly, criticized by some for a poor initial performance and dissolved by court order just months after it was elected, would not serve a full four-year term.?

Journalists Mona Eltahawy and Ethar El-Katatney join Melissa Harris-Perry to discuss the underlying economic and gender issues in Egypt after newly elected president Mohammed Morsi was sworn into office this week.

"The military wanted to dissolve parliament and the Brotherhood doesn't. There has to be somewhere they can meet in the middle or there will be an indefinite stand-off," said Shadi Hamid of the Brookings Doha Center.?

"This could be a compromise arrangement for the short term, so the military gets part of what it wanted - a new parliament in coming months - and Islamists can avoid a situation where the military dominates a legislative authority," he said.?

The Supreme Constitutional Court called an emergency session on Monday to review the Morsi's move, the court's deputy Maher Sami told the state news agency MENA, signaling there could be a prolonged legal wrangle.?

Reuters and The Associated Press contributed to this report.?
