In the 6th richest richest economy on earth people forced to eat food bank parcels on the spot - while a Labour Government says a wealth tax is unthinkable.
Good Morning Britain@GMB

Staff at food banks have told GMB that some users are now so desperate, they're ripping open food parcels to eat as soon as they get them. In the last year, Trussell has distributed more than 2.5 million emergency packages. @NickDixonITV reports.

♻️ FREE COMMUNITY SKIPS COMING TO LAMBETH ♻️ If re-elected, Labour in Lambeth will introduce free community skips in every neighbourhood, reducing fly-tipping and making it easier than ever to dispose of bulky waste. Pride in our neighbourhood starts with cleaner streets.

Watch this video! It calmly but devastatingly shows that Lambeth's LTNs fail to achieve their goals and that neighbouring Wandsworth, which removed its 7 Covid LTNs, has less congestion, emissions & road casualties. youtube.com/watch?v=kjRBMM…

@thetimes A fact so obvious it can be seen from the moon. It's about time media took seriously the increasingly trapped & bullied residents of greedy councils making hay while the Mayor spaffs LTN funds in their direction. 🗣Enclaves, social division, corruption, greenwash, abuse of power.

The full judgment from the High Court re Open Our Rds v Croydon Council👇🏻. Lots of 'procedural' stumbles. The merits of the *actual claim* are outlined from p27. bailii.org/cgi-bin/format…) A layman's summary see pic's.

How it is that people with track record of failure get employed elsewhere? Sara Waller, who oversaw disastrous Homes for Lambeth, wasting millions and building very few homes, has been appointed CEO of Ebbsfleet DC and tasked with building a whole town: ebbsfleetgardencity.org.uk/2026/02/24/new…

"These schemes are having a huge detrimental impact on our communities...these schemes should not be enforced on communities...I would like to remove all the LTNs on the 1st day after I become Mayor...I do not want Croydon to be dependent on fining residents." Jason Perry Apr 22.

@LDN_pressoffice @MayorofLondon Authoritarians at the drawing board telling residents what's best for them has ruined Lambeth. Increasingly London seems to be in the stranglehold of a rigid ideology, which long ago stopped being benign or democratic & is now an arrogant personal mission. x.com/i/status/20090…

Mayor of London decides that (Nabeel) Khan - who has presided over Lambeth Council's divisive & harmful LTNs, & its kerbside "strategy", (& regards a formula of parklets & planters in place of parking to be "trail blazing") - is the guy Oxford St needs 🙃 standard.co.uk/news/london/sa…

The stated aim may have been to "reduce congestion" but the strategic aim was to increase congestion on already busy community roads and bus routes, to make car & bus use less convenient and so increase the number of people cycling and the amount of funding for cycling schemes.
The Telegraph@Telegraph

🚲 “You’re taking a chance every time you’re riding into Shrewsbury" A council scheme was meant to make key roads safer and reduce congestion, but it had the opposite effect Find out more ⬇️ telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/02/2…
