I have lived happily in Ealing for 30 years since returning to UK from Africa with my very young children. Over the last 6 years of planning applications and major developments on either side of my house, I have become aware of the incompetence and naked mendacity and malice of the Council under the stewardship of Julian Bell. If I thought things were bad in Africa in terms of greed and self-interest, I am appalled at how much worse it is here, if less evident on the surface. I could write a small book about the hostile (to residents) culture within council departments, the bullying of employees and the consequently high turnover of staff, and the “influences” that are brought to bear on planning decisions. After all these years, I am now considering returning home to Scotland. I feel desperately sorry for Ealing and all the good people living here. |
