Isle of Dogs Labour

Standing up for a cleaner, safer, fairer Isle of Dogs! Councillor @MufeedahB (Island Gardens), local MP @apsanabegummp

Incredibly worrying & disappointing to see @TowerHamletsNow take this approach.

Promises made in 2022 to groups across Tower Hamlets seem to have been reneged on, with little scrutiny.

Cancelling effective services & contracts is not best value for our borough!

From today, despite pledging not to increase Council Tax, Mayor Lutfur Rahman will be charging Tower Hamlets residents up to £114 more this year. And despite promising to exempt those on middle incomes, 90,000 households have to pay in full. @TH_Labour voted against this increase

Oi oi @PennyMordaunt! What's this all about in yesterdays Business Qs? There is no "Labour vote-rigging" in Tower Hamlets. You're confusing us with the Aspire Party, whose Mayor's election was annulled in 2015. Looks like you owe @ApsanaBegumMP @rushanaraali @TH_Labour an apology

This section of letter to CEO explains why @luhc civil servants have ordered an independent inspection of LBTH. Difficult to see how Mayor Rahman can justify his £5 million coterie of advisors represents "best value" or why so many senior staff have left. https://t.co/IOiWJrwHFz

Just discovered the £480,000 a year reduction in spending on the Mayor's nine advisors that we were told would take place in 2025 now won't happen. Instead, these roles are extended at least to the 2026 election. The £1 million cost is one reason he is hiking your Council Tax! 🧐
