@Hapoel4 The Labour NEC, nor the left faction, had nothing to when Haringey failed its must vulnerable resident (BabyP) but now Haringey are trying to defy Tory austerity (rebuild poor social housing) the middle classes are outraged about ownership models with no alternative 🤦‍♂️

Haringey Council’s letter to Schools laying out facts about infection rates in borough asking schools to remain closed. Defying this reckless Tory Government to protect health and lives of children and families is a duty. If Tories dare take us to court it’s a duty we must defend

Are Chartwells receiving £15 per child on free school meals and distributing £1.50 of food? If their business model can’t withstand school closures step aside! Government must help councils to bring catering in house. Give vouchers now and start municipalisation of school dinners

How many working class North Londoners are sick to the back teeth of being erased by posh people characterising #Islington as bubble of privilege? Those they mock are those who saw other side - our side and our parallel lives. Can’t take Finsbury Park out of me either and proud.

Just received my ballot from UNISON and I have voted YES for strike action on pay. 1.75% and 2.75% for the lowest paid is not better than nothing it’s a real terms pay cut if you take in to account inflation and increase in National Insurance #VoteYes #Unison

The survey you allege would have been of interest to the Housing and Regeneration Scrutiny Panel evidence gathering which I chaired ALL Cllrs invited to participate and contribute. I can provide evidence of this. None came forward with survey - I would have liked to hear

Vile Islamophobic conspiracy theory from “Labour source” in this article. To say Muslims won’t vote Labour because we are challenging anti Semitism is as racist and reckless as saying Jewish people won’t vote Labour because party challenges Islamophobia. STOP dividing communities

If Labour loses in Batley and Spen it won't necessarily mark the end of Keir Starmer's leadership. But looking at the poison seeping out of that by-election, maybe it would be better for him if it did > Mail On Sunday >

Disgusting public bullying and attempted public shaming. This guy is out of control. Bullying in action. He is cabinet Member in Haringey and these tweets are directed at a fellow Labour Cllr - referencing another Labour Cllr.

Thank you to all the lovely women across the traditions of the North London Labour Party today who supported me and rooted for me at London Labour Regional conference. We lost but we also won in many ways I am quite teary about how wonderful non factional sisterhood feels.

Really excited to see the quick progress on Rosa Luxemburg building in Tottenham. 104 Council homes well on their way to completion. Windows are now going in. Life changing for families and single homeless people on our waiting list and families in overcrowded homes.

Yes - Spat on when trying to attend a meeting at Labour conference, then people trying to kick the windows in, cross examined at interview to be a PPC leaving in floods of tears, Villified on social media for asking for a calm debate and supporting friend standing to be a Cllr.

I'm glad to see Wes Streeting acknowledge the role the Labour party has played in contributing to the toxicity of the debate around the conflict between women's and trans rights. Some Labour gender critical women have experienced awful bullying from within their own party.

This is a thoughtful and balanced response to a thoughtful and balanced review. I have argued for so long that the complex debate on Gender identity needs move away from politically combative extreme language. I am starting to feel we may finally get there.

The UK government needs to relaunch the EveryoneIn policy and financially support Councils to protect people who become homeless during this Lockdown. In Haringey we are continuing to support every rough sleeper with with emergency accommodation. However we must be able to widen
