Concerned Resident of Cotton Gardens

Tired and frustrated Cotton Gardens Estate/Lambeth resident. Highlighting our plight with a sense of righteousness and humour(?). Bark almost as bad as my bite.

Hurley House on #CottonGardensEstate has been suffering with a leak in the lobby since last week. Feels like an impossible mission to get the council to plug the leak. What are you doing about this @lambeth_council ? Any updates? #healthandsafety #Hazard #CottonGardens #Lambeth

What is it that people expect from deporting people?

Because it won't lower House prices or rents.
And it won't make food or energy cheaper.
There won't be more jobs and they certainly won't pay better.

At what point do you realise it is going to achieve nothing?

It's staggering that given the previous @HousingOmbuds decision @lambeth_council are still intent on ignoring the very necessary upgrade to our lifts on #CottonGardensEstate. Ridiculous that residents have to go to such extremes for repairs to services that we're paying for.

2024 @HousingOmbuds re @lambeth_council lift repair "Given the ongoing nature of the problem, it would have been appropriate for the landlord to have sought a long-term solution rather than allowing the outage to continue ... before the upgrade commenced."

A small update on the lift that broke down on 2nd October. The estimated repair date of 10th October has been officially upgraded to 'ASAP'. A bold strategy. I hope the other lift doesn't break down before 'ASAP' arrives. @lambeth_council, sort it out! #CottonGardensEstate

[Concerned Resident of Cotton Gardens @ConcernedResie]

@GoingtoShed @lambeth_council And they've left the replacement so long that in the long run it'll cost them much more than if they'd replaced them when they should have been. I think they're going to leave everything so that they can just demolish our estate and sell the land.

The 'estimated' repair date of 10/10/25 has come and gone. @Lambeth_Council what is happening with the lift repair in #HurleyHouse on #CottonGardensEstate? The lift still ain't been fixed! It's a matter of time before the other one goes. 😟 #ManagedDecline #LambethCouncil

[Going To The Shed @GoingtoShed]

@ConcernedResie @lambeth_council why oh why is Lambeth so slow...we pay for a service that seems to be invisible... parts how old are these lifts???? the repair cost must have succeeded the cost of new lifts ,,???? Lambeth we pay for a service
... pull your finger out.......

It's no coincidence that Reform UK are being bank rolled by the very same billionaires who are putting up your bills and burning the planet.

The small boats are a distraction.

Stop blaming immigrants and start blaming an exploitative capitalist system.

If they cannot repay then their assets should be seized. It’s ridiculous how they can just claim bankruptcy. It seems crime really does pay... Shame is not enough! The ordinary person would have gone to jail....

.@CGE1TRA Just home tonight, and 1 lift is out again in Hurley House #CottonGardensEstate. No doubt the other lift will be out soon again too. We need to get the lift issues sorted ASAP. Been seeing activities advertised by the TRA, but no meetings. When is the next TRA meeting?

The Labour government initially said that digital ID was necessary to curb illegal migration. Now they are saying it’s necessary for pretty much everything. It’s all bullshit. It’s all about government control. A massive overreach of power. No one voted for this.

[Concerned Resident of Cotton Gardens @ConcernedResie]

@SamanthaJC123 @CGE1TRA @lambeth_council The strangest thing. This has appeared on the noticeboard. @lambeth_council has neglected to mention that the TRA has been disbanded, and failed to inform residents that there is no TRA as they've done on two previous occasions. There's defo something fishy going on.

BREAKING: Police in Westminster react VIOLENTLY to protests against the interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla.

Where was this energy for the far-right protests?

[Concerned Resident of Cotton Gardens @ConcernedResie]

@CGE1TRA @lambeth_council What?! There's something fishy going on here. Why haven't we been informed? Who's delivering the stuff that's on the TRA noticeboard? Who's doing this then? 👇 It says TRA.

Say NO to Digital ID ⛔️

[Dystopian Times @DystopianTimes_]

What digitial IDs can’t do:

- stop illegal immigration
- stop crime
- help the poor
- save money
- make your life easier

What digitial IDs can do:

- make billions for the people who operate them
- jeopardise your personal data, leaving you exposed to identity theft and blackmail
- stop working due to hacks, system crashes and technical glitches
- end your right to privacy
- enable the government to spy on you, recording your movements, shopping habits, social media contacts, social media posts, DMs, phone calls, text messages, emails, personal photos and videos, and even access your camera and microphone
- pave the way for authoritarian measures through constant surveillance, punishing wrong think and pre-crime
- switch off your access to anything that in future requires them, which could include anything from internet access to driving your car to using your bank account

Literally nobody voted for this…
