@PutneyFleur @EmmaforWycombe @Keir_Starmer @EnvironmentAPPG @LDN_environment @PutneyEnvirone1 @guardianeco @LBCNews @SkyNews @BBCNews @BBCNewsnight Meanwhile.. 61% of @PutneyFleur residents live in leasehold flats , being massively screwed by excessive service charges, also many businesses in the area getting squeezed by excessive business rates ... But falling trees is what she thinks is most important .. 3 more years

@RMTunion What are the wholesale terms and conditions? This has been publicly stated as voluntary, and ASLEF have agreed it. Huge risk here that TFL just play you against ASLEF, offer them better terms, & pull members across. Strike impact seems minimal this week, easy to get to work

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@RMTunion @asianick85 Eh why would conditions change of a driver swaps depots, same company same terms. New drivers would sign up to what ever conditions they negotiated in the interview ? Seems like what everyone else does when they take a new job .

@peter_graham @MalcolmGrimston @CllrSimonHogg @WandswrthLabour @wandbc @aled_rj True but they aren't in power now - council officers should be neutral (obviously hard to be perfect)

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@peter_graham @MalcolmGrimston @CllrSimonHogg @WandswrthLabour @wandbc @aled_rj And maybe you might have realised that people of Wandsworth are tired of parties bickering & scoring points off each other, rather than getting in with managing what they are responsible for. If u want to last more than 4 years, forget politics, prove you can manage the area .

@Ed_Miliband The price cap is due to the cost of gas mainly LNG imports. It is total madness that all energy is based on gas the most expensive cost. Why not have a median approach, maybe daily prices based on average, so then people will see the benefits of wind & solar as today they don't

@NetworkRailWssx This is fantastic news of course - but .. would it not be better to just close the station for say 2-3 weeks in the summer & get it all done in one go ? People would not mind going to Clapham or Putney easy to do - better than 6 months of work

@KirstieMAllsopp @Scampicus Need to create new revenue for pubs, allow them more services (ie Banking, post office, extended hours off licence) , allow betting & automatic music licences,

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@mtpennycook Check the votes in Putney, especially west Putney & Thames field , 65% leasehold properties, lots of section 106 issues, many residents private WhatsApp groups, pushed to return Tories. Invisible campaigning, broke labour in Wandsworth, think about that in a GE

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@PutneyFleur @PutneyLabour @SouthfieldsLab @WestPutneyLab @RoeLabourCllrs @LondonLabour @CllrSimonHogg @DrRosena @MarshadeCordova @LeonieC Wandsworth council under labour have been pushing infrastructure into section 106, so leaseholders are now paying to upkeep public roads, bus stops, footpathd.Nearly every application that labour have approved has this now, loading millions of charges on leaseholders. Scandalous

@PutneyFleur Faceless off shore property companies in singapore are hoovering up flats in Wandsworth (1-2 beds), increasing rent they will simply ignore these rules. How will WBC enforce this billion $ off shore lawyered up company ?. They rent via LLP so avoid these rules, (ie company let)

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@Conway_NE @4sec7 Unless these companies are off shore (Singapore/ Malaysia) who make 0 profit here, pay no tax, & can simply ignore these rules. Lambeth council trying to get fines out of a multi billion, lawyered up off shore .. not chance.

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@TradingParrot Already happening - large off shore property funds hovering up flats in London from small landlords. 5% premium, will simply ignore all of these rules. How will say Lambeth council enforce a £7k fine on a Billion dollar off shore company. They will exploit the rental market

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@mtpennycook @instituteforgov Sorry I meant freeholders not leaseholders

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@mtpennycook @instituteforgov set a 5- 10 year deadline, no other country has this system and they seem to do fine, it is not like strata and commonhold are new things. If leaseholders had been sensible, this would not be needed, they turned services charges into a revenue exploitation scheme, their fault

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@hiltonholloway Hum .. so we have a freeholder - Fraser's group, no direct contact allowed, who have raised stationary costs from £500 to £2.5k every leaseholder asked for electronic. So 3 letters a month, hand delivered when not needed by the management agent who charges 15% admin 🤣🤣🤣

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@SimonMagus Originally leasehold was a partnership between the developers & leaseholders responsibility. Good way to share the costs. companies found ways to exploit them for profit around 2013. So our lease allows upto £2k for comms, 2007 to 2013 was £500 a year, since 2013 it is £2k .

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@GlennSeat @BeadleBen @mtpennycook What's happening is private landlords with 1-4 property are selling to mainly Singapore based corporations - they are hovering up 1-3 bed properties for rent, as basically they are so massive they don't care a hoot for the new regulations, lawyer up, push out for years etc

@RMTunion It is a private media station, has no public funding, and their backers may not be interested in making a profit... You might see a surprise may 7th and if it swings you may not be so cozy

[phil sellick @sonic_phil]

@gray2287 @RMTunion Yep agreed - but why do you need to strike too get answers to 4 questions. You need better negotiaters not strike
