I strongly believe that if people get involved in local politics it should be for what they can give, rather than what they may receive

Have you ever wondered why the UK tax year starts on 06 April? This explanation was recently sent to me.

According to @thetimes 9/10 top special (SEND) schools are owned by global investment firms. That is one of the reasons why local authorities have to pay so much & council finances in crises. @LBofHavering are to start building our own

@russtxy I went & had a look. The area you highlighted is behind the (albeit broken) wire mesh fence & is Network Rail land. They won't allow anyone on their land to litter pick. I will ask them to do it themselves but my experience is they will only remove large items, like mattresses

@CllrTyler You’ve got it. The council contractor goes in there to clear the bins and have a slight tidy up. They need to do it properly

Just proves that you can't trust AI. It obviously thought that traffic would be going over and around it sometime soon!

Interesting article ^ @faisalislam @BBCNews regarding divergence of consumer confidence by different age grps. Historically different ages have followed same patterns but ^ late 2024 older confidence is falling while younger is rising bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

For the info of anyone visiting Lakeside over the next few days ^ @EssexPoliceUK . I have been told that it was intended to set off fireworks (possibly inside).

Prov Local Gov Finance Settlement published yesterday. Not privy to seeing Havering's settlement yet but ^ blv it's as expected - better but not enough to remedy our finance probs. Balanced Settlement summary by Local Government Information Unit @LGiU via lgiu.org/press-release/…

6/. My message to @Sam_Dumitriu is – if you truly want to change how GB builds homes, back balanced ideas that will be supported by majority. @UKLabour changes remove local democracy & will only add to the current backlash against political mainstream parties.

5/. Also, @Sam_Dumitriu promotes granny annexes in gardens & includes idyllic photo in article. They won’t solve the housing crises, in my part of country rarely look like that & often become beds in sheds at some point.

4/. @Sam_Dumitriu If you don’t like the idea of affordable housing, surely the logical solution is to cut out the middleman (developers), create a Gov owned national building co. & mass build council housing like they did in Dagenham?

3/. @Sam_Dumitriu criticises affordable housing. But how do you house people who cannot afford to buy? Without it you solve nothing & are just lining pockets of developers shareholders.

2/. Points I would take up with @Sam_Dumitriu A) He calls local planning committees ‘political’. They are voice of locals & taking that away is undemocratic. Who does the decision making go to? A: Whichever party is in Gov. Great for him if pro build but what if they aren’t?

1/. Interesting planning views from @Sam_Dumitriu & worth read even if, like me, you are a sceptic. I am naturally defensive of Green Belt development but would be more accepting if it solved anything - It won't unless our population stops expanding at unsustainable rate.

The same group have now sent me a link to an online map of BMA picket line locations, so that I can join the doctor's strike. Thanks but no thanks.

2/. Is it just me or are we getting nearer to 1970s Britain every day? Flying pickets anyone?

1/. I get a lot of unsolicited lobbying. One of regulars is group coordinating picketing at industrial disputes across country. Latest promotes a Megapicket in Brum in early 26. What took my eye was their offer to provide hotel accommodation on night before.

@SamMorshead_ I'm not concentrating on anything past Salford yet. Did you see how they trounced Leyton Orient? (Anyone big at home would be good though - see the County Ground full again for the first time in ages)
