| Ealing Labour isn’t really true, traditional Labour. Despite massive amounts of construction in the borough the council housing waiting list has grown. A ‘proper’ Labour council would have used cash from the Mayor (upwards of £100m) to build some council housing, as has happened in other boroughs. Instead, to keep the developer chums sweet we get ‘genuinely affordable’ housing, usually anything but for those who need it. And then you have a former council leader who retained a social housing property despite owning a big house round the corner because he ‘needed it’. Self interest and looking after one’s mates is never a good look. |
