Lambeth Council has spent £25m+ on climate and “active travel” initiatives since 2019 It is also paying more than 40 staff at least £100k a year including a “director of climate and inclusive growth” who is on £160k. Now it is dimming the street lights to help pay the bills 🙄
This is the worst funding crisis the council has ever faced. On Monday, Cabinet approved £50M of budget savings, as we face “impossible choices” due to unprecedented demand for emergency housing, & years of funding cuts by previous governments. Moreℹ️: https://t.co/jqI5AepcjC

@GreenPartyScott @ggniewosz @AntonyArth75909 @PeoplesAudit @HRRBFireSafety @Jason_Cobb @pete556 @gamecounsel @SaveCressingham @ConcernedResie @survivinglambet I'm apolitical, but i must say the Green Party has done more for us at MC over the years than either the Labour or the Tories, who are just both cheeks of the same arse.

Can we please start by investigating Labour's Homes for Lambeth and some of the contracts and decision-making there. A lot of people made a lot of money and delivered nothing. Why for example was the Hydethorpe development redacted from the kerslake review? @PeoplesAudit

I genuinely believe government intervention is needed when it comes to Lambeth Councils repair service. Of all the councils across the country I have dealt with the most complaints have come from Lambeth Council residents.
An elderly couple are living in a council property in Brixton that is "completely unsafe, unhealthy and unacceptable", according to their daughter. https://t.co/WmuLm55rYY

Why do @UKLabour council leaders, being inspected by the @HousingOmbuds as rogue landlords, always get invited to speak at these events? @TenantCourt @court_sw16 @DenbyCourt @lambethshambles @survivinglambet @insidehousing @luhc @CommonsLUHC @Kwajotweneboa
This morning’s @londoncouncils fringe event at Labour Party Conference focused on our ambition for a retrofit revolution. We discussed how we can make our homes greener, warmer, and more affordable with speakers @clairekholland, @tomcopley, @bevcraig and @CitizensAdvice. #Lab23

I've never seen so much BS as what I'm witnessing now. Lambeth consistently disregard the human rights of residents. Us. Us people. Repairs are not completed, appointments are never met. What are we paying for? Where does our rent go? Our complaints go nowhere. We need HELP!
The @lambeth_council Housing Scrutiny Sub-Committee will be meeting this evening at 7pm. The agenda and live stream are available through the following link: https://t.co/ktaJKDRzP1

@lambeth_council what is wrong with your housing repair teams and contractors? Who is responsible for this and who is going to be charged with negligence or lose their job/contract? We need a full investigation into this long, sorry saga. @Kwajotweneboa
