These shocking images show the horrendous state of a family's home where mushrooms are growing out of the walls and ceilings where sewage has leaked through.
Kwajo Tweneboa, a campaigner fighting injustice in social housing, shared the videos as he said the family in North London first raised the issues with Islington Council last December.
A spokesperson for the council told The Mirror on Sunday that they have since been in contact with the family and have offered "immediate rehousing".
The footage shows due to ongoing leaks and black mould in the home, the family's surviving belongings are all in the front room.
The mum also reportedly sleeps on the sofa because of mould in two of the three bedrooms.
Mushrooms are seen growing on the ceilings and walls where sewage has seeped through.

Some mould on the walls was a different colour and growing fur.
Mr Tweneboa wrote in the thread: "Mushrooms now grow from the bacteria where sewage has seeped through the walls and ceilings in the bedroom.
"The walls of the second bedroom is covered in black mould. In another corner the mould was light and growing fur, indicating two different types of mould in the same bedroom.

"The tenants have been paying rent for a three-bed property. They haven't had two of the bedrooms for a year."
Items of furniture were seen piled outside the home, where they have been since January, Mr Tweneboa wrote.
Other heartbreaking images show gaps in the wall that appear to be patched up with foil.

Mr Tweneboa wrote: "They've had to resort to using foil and tape to try and keep mice out of the property. All these issues they've reported.
"They said communication from Islington Council has been beyond a disgrace.
"Workmen and 'surveyors' have seen it but nothing has ever been done to fix it."
The appalling conditions have been brought to light after an inquest found that Awaab Ishak died following exposure to untreated mould in his home.
Coroner Joanne Kearsley gave a narrative conclusion for Awaab's death with a medical cause of acute airway oedema with severe granulomatous tracheobronchitis due to environmental mould exposure.
An Islington Council spokesperson told The Mirror: “We want everyone to have a home which is secure, decent, and genuinely affordable.
“The images posted by @KwajoHousing are extremely concerning.
“We’ve spoken with the tenant today, have offered immediate rehousing, and are discussing permanent rehousing options. We’re also urgently reviewing this repairs case.”
