Save Shirley is a non political group born out of Croydon Councils plans to demolish existing residential housing and replace with 4 Storey blocks of flats.
Absolute joke @CllrScottRoche@JasonForCroydon No bin collection again for Wickham Avenue. Refuse truck came down Saturday and emptied 1 bin! @CroydonCouncil website says bin not collected because waste wasn’t presented…that’s the whole street then! Now unable report the issue.
@Chrishni_Reshe It’s Tony Newman and his band of @CroydonLabour merry men that brought #Croydon#council to its knees. Yet walk away Scott (Paul) free. It’s residents now having to pay for this shocking mismanagement of public finances.
Should #Croydon residents pay a 15% increase in #counciltax to cover the huge black hole in #council finances because of mismanagement? No one held to account except out of pocket #residents
#Croydon issued a Section 114 notice in November 2022, effectively declaring bankruptcy, due to a £130m black hole in the following year’s budget. This was the third time the council declared bankruptcy in the last two years. @CroydonLabour@CroydonTories
Croydon Council can increase council tax by an additional 10% with the government revealing that due to “exceptional circumstance” and “unprecedented scale of financial deficits in the council” ministers had agreed to their request. Another fine mess @CroydonLabour@CroydonTories
@ValShawcross @CroydonLabour candidate for #CroydonMayor, has entered the row over the Local Plan review, opposing the proposed intensification and warning that something beautiful within the character of #Croydon could be lost #SaveShirley@TweetsMORA https://t.co/BpBQbcTJc0
Croydon Council's Best Start consultation has been extended to Sunday 20th June. If you don't think it's right that parents in Shirley and much of the south of the Borough will be left with no children centre provision, please complete the survey. https://t.co/fKPPU2R8L7
.@SadiqKhan racked up £9.56bn of waste at TfL.
Now he wants you to pay the price — with a 21% rise in council tax.
As Mayor, I’ll allow corporate sponsorship of the tube, raising £500m and protecting the services we rely on.
Without raising taxes.
