WEMBLEY MATTERS: Ealing Road blocks replacing bank and public house approved by Brent Planning Committee Brent Council wembleymatters.blogspot.com/2024/08/ealing…

An affordable and secure home is life changing, yet for so many it remains out of reach. It's why we're pushing for changes that allow local authorities to buy land at lower prices, helping councils build the genuinely affordable homes that are desperately needed.

Incredible. I’ve been calling for easing restrictions on use of CIL for years! And only last month was told by the Leader it was a naive approach. I have the video exchange to prove it. Martin Francis Grant Williams

WEMBLEY MATTERS: Not so 'simplistic' after all! Cllr Butt takes up Lib Dem suggestion on CIL with the Labour Government Brent Council Brent Labour Cllr Anton Georgiou 🔶 Cllr Muhammed Butt wembleymatters.blogspot.com/2024/08/not-so…

AKA Brent Council’s Social Cleansing Campaign.

You would think that as an MP or indeed the Leader of a council, you’d go out of your way to make sure your properties were in the best condition. Not Jas Athwal. But he’s part of Starmer’s project so unlikely to face any consequences bbc.com/news/articles/…

He has brought disgrace on Labour & needs to immediately resign. As a cllr I spend hours each month supporting residents who are living desperately in poor conditions while their absent landlord rakes in the cash.

He’s sorry he got caught. Typical The Labour Party, they talk the talk on renters rights but happy to screw the most vulnerable if it benefits their pocket. I wonder how many other rogue Labour politician landlords there are… hmm… Brent Labour London Labour

Another photo op for the Leader of Brent Council in a suit (lol) at a ‘community skip’. Pathetic.

Slum landlord Jas Athwal - the biggest landlord in Parliament - has hit the headlines for his atrocious treatment of his tenants. But how did he become an MP in the first place? A 🧵on a major case of Labour corruption.

The London Renters' Union (LRU) has called on Labour MP Jas Athwal to stand down after a BBC investigation found black mould and ant infestations in his rental properties. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Why??? She hasn’t been to Scrutiny in some time now.

Martin Francis Cllr Anton Georgiou 🔶 Well, she’s not here in Chingford & Woodford Green … we definitely sent her back 😉

Hi Brent Council — is this a good enough reason for a member of the Cabinet to not attend Scrutiny Committee and answer important questions about their portfolio? I look forward to hearing from you.

Abysmal turnout. People are fed up of broken promises and declining standards in our area.

No such thing as scrutiny and accountability in Butt’s Brent. Disgraceful Brent Council. Cc Private Eye Magazine

I look forward to reading about this herstory makers life &career. Politics aside, Diane deserves our respect for all she has achieved in years of public service, particularly in breaking glass ceilings for women & others who often don’t find themselves in the corridors of power.

Is there any point? Press or not, Brent Council don’t care. They think a couple of community skip events featuring the Leader in a suit will solve our rubbish problems. Clueless.

.Brent Council has a responsibility to act too. Easy to blame Lime for current issues, but what have the Labour Cabinet & (out of her depth) Lead Member done to improve the situation? I’ve seen the shoddy MOU that Brent agreed to. Look forward to a response Cllr Neil Nerva 🌹🇪🇺🇬🇧 🇺🇦 🚉.
