Good to be out campaigning in Island Gardens last night with Peter and the team. I think I took more than my fair share of the rain, but hearing residents’ views always makes it worthwhile!
Damp Friday but knocked on doors with Matthew and helpers in Island Gardens.

Excellent news! Mudchute Farm is a real community asset, and securing its future gives much-needed stability for education, recreation and green space.
Yesterday evening, Tower Hamlets Council granted Mudchute Farm a 30 year lease at an annual rent of £15,000. Europe's largest City Farm is secure for the future thanks to brilliant work by the trustees.

2015 - @TowerHamletsNow Youth Service budget was £8.1 million & we had 44 youth centres. 2022 - the budget is £2.1 million & we have just 10 youth centres. The Council has no shortage of money. Labour Mayor Biggs is failing our young people.

Out campaigning in Isle or Dogs with @going4golds and @callum__murphy. Beautiful weather to be out talking with residents! – at Poplar, London

This situation will soon occur in many blocks across Tower Hamlets, Labour run @TowerHamletsNow needs to implement a plan to assist residents with extra bin stores and collections to stop the area returning to Dickensian times while works are carried out!
Day 6 #LifeBehindMonarflex Unexpected consequence - due to scaffolding being too narrowly constructed around refuse store, unable to move bins in and out, instead open, overflowing bins litter the street outside our front door, now a community refuse tip + rats, foxes, crows

The next Blackwall & Cubitt Town ward panel will be a virtual meeting on the 2nd of Feb at 7pm. It’s been a long time since the last meeting with the Police so looking forward to it. Your chance to raise any crime & ASB concerns directly with the Police!

Even @TH_Labour Councillors admit @MayorJohnBiggs’s decision to take waste services back in house has been a disaster. Residents suffer constant missed bin collections and a poor street cleaning service from failing Labour @TowerHamletsNow.

Tonight @goingforgolds pressed for a separate polling place for London City Island. Voting should be made easy. When consulted, the three Labour ward councillors for Blackwall and Cubitt Town simply had nothing to say.

Out in Crossharbour today speaking to residents about rubbish, development and crime. Labour is letting down Tower Hamlets more than ever. Shocking 🥀

Hey @TowerHamletsNow lots of rubbish built up on Marshfield St, E14 including what looks suspiciously like an Asbestos pram shed roof. Could someone investigate ASAP?
