Artwash and the Rhizome (the Social Cleansing of Poplar) balfronsocialclub.org/2018/04/16/art…

In 2015, @historicengland approved the architectural vandalism of Ernö Goldfingers Balfron Tower in East London.

Despite being Grade II* listed, Balfron Towers appearance was significantly altered.

Nobody's ever been charged for this vandalism.

The developers sold 0 flats.

Another example of how crap quality new builds are in the U.K.

What standard are these homes being built to?!

Sorry you’re going through this Dan 🤦🏽‍♂️Dan Bruce

Social tenants were ‘decanted’ from the iconic east London tower block so their flats could be sold for profit. Now nobody wants to buy them.

'Property developers have failed to sell a single flat in east London’s brutalist landmark Balfron Tower, forcing them to withdraw 139 properties from the market and reconsider the future of the building'

You can't help but delight in Balfron's privatisation & social cleansing failing so abysmally. No apartments sold - overpriced & stripped of its original details. The obvious answer would be to return the block to it's original & necessary purpose as council housing

£57 million. Ouch.

2 weeks ago we heard Zayna’s story...

She accused Greater Manchester Police officers of drugging and sexually assaulting her in police custody. We also heard from @kirstyy199 and Maria who were strip searched by the same police force.

Yesterday I met Zayna outside the Home

1.4 million people on the current social housing waiting list.

81, 000 homeless kids in London

440,000 kids in poverty with at least one parent in full time work.

The question is, what’s going to be delivered to help them at the next election?

This is effectively saying 'the policy position we've been aggressively pursuing for our entire 13 years in power was wrong'. The tiny number of social rented homes being built is a political choice, not an accident

Puru Miah 🌹 بابر کی اولاد The Labour Party Marc Francis Sorry Puru, I want to note the abuse, harm & racism you have endured in your Labour journey. This is a method of gaslighting, distraction & rooted in white supremacy. They did this to Apsana Begum MP et al. Alhamdullilah we are Muslims, they go low we go high; LabourList

Labour created this problem we are in so we did not invite them. We invited the two MPs - both Labour by the way. Also, invited the Mayor and two councillors in the board of Thch.

Week 8 on strike for decent pay & conditions.

Shame on St Mungo's for abusing workers & service users, while senior execs sit on their fat pay checks.
