Tower Hamlets property

City AM has a interesting report on the Tower Hamlets property market and mainly Bow .

Hit and runs

We should be ashamed of ourselves in Tower Hamlets .

Carrot Cars

I live in Tower Hamlets and I have never heard of them .

Tall towers

It seems that 10 of the 12 tallest residential buildings will be in the Isle of Dogs. Tower Hamlets is the new Manhattan .

Getting the big guns

It seems that Tower Hamlets Mayor Rahman is getting a prominent barrister to defend him in the election petition .

Tower Hamlets Rugby

Tower Hamlets Council is not going to listen to Millwall Rugby Club . 

Election petition update

It seems that the people behind Tower Hamlets election petition are having a rough time .

Tower Hamlets population data

Ted Jeory has done some wonderful work and put a lot of time and effort into it. I have been concerned that Tower Hamlets has become too Bengali. Also one other fact is that the number of young people who speak English and who are not likely to be a part of the future Bengali Tower Hamlets. We don't need a Bengali Tower Hamlets. We need one Tower Hamlets for everyone .

University boycott

When I was at Londonmet from 2000-3 this kind of thing happened than .

Terrible environment news

This is terrible news for the environment of the area near London City Airport including Tower Hamlets .

Rightly so

I am not sure if Keith lives in Tower Hamlets but he rightly deserves this .

Street brawl

This is tame compared to what happened when Rahman was re-elected as the Mayor of Tower Hamlets.

New homes in the East

East End of London including Tower Hamlets seems to a place with a lot of new homes .

Jobs clinic

If you live in the Bethnal Green and Bow area of Tower Hamlets this might be worth a visit .

Sexual assault

Help the police by stopping this man from sexually assaulting other girls in Tower Hamlets .

Child poverty in Tower Hamlets

The Wharf has a article on child poverty in Tower Hamlets. It is detailed but it does not name the wards .

Office economics

It seems that office space supply rules in Tower Hamlets don't follow economic reality .

Odd grants in Tower Hamlets

Those grants are odd. It's nice to see that Tower Hamlets Council answering a question for once. They are hiding behind the PwC report .

Tower Hamlets grants

Mark Baynes raises some more important questions about the way that Tower Hamlets Council hands out grants .

Good work

It is good to see the Church of England supporting areas like Tower Hamlets .

Cuts to childern's services

One of the things that I have noticed missing about cuts to children's services in Tower Hamlets is a comment from the Mayor. Maybe he does not care about deaf children or maybe he does? He should answer .

"Trojan horse" London

One of the surprising things is that Sir John Cass School (not it's full name) was on the list. It is a Church of England school in Tower Hamlets .

Cricket win

Good to see that Tower Hamlets College are doing well in cricket .

Child poverty Tower Hamlets

I have covered this extensively last week .

New developments

Not just in Tower Hamlets .

Winter

Winter is coming and hopefully Mayor Rahman wont see it in office as Tower Hamlets Mayor.

The big wait

The big wait was not over this week as we did not get the PwC report into Tower Hamlets.

Animal project

The part of Tower Hamlets where I live some of the people still keep animals in the back garden .

Cost of living

It is very high in Tower Hamlets .

Freethinkers in Tower Hill

I would have loved to go to Tower Hill and tell all those freethinkers about the lack of religious freedom in Tower Hamlets .

Park damage

Thankfully we have Peter Golds to point out all the faults of the Rahman administration in Tower Hamlets .

Beyond a joke

Tower Hamlets Council listening to residents .

Child poverty

This time it's The Wharf on child poverty in Tower Hamlets .

Tower Hamlets poverty

The amount of poverty in Tower Hamlets is alarming .

Nursery cuts

It is a shame and a disgrace that Tower Hamlets has to close a nursery for vulnerable children. Tower Hamlets can spend it's money on any court case the Mayor wants but not on children. One of the woman voted for Rahman and now she is angry. Rahman has nothing but contempt for the people. Shame on him .

Tough questions for Gilligan

Tower Hamlets has been a difficult area to cycle in .

This week

I have been told that the PwC report into Tower Hamlets is this week and a lot of Tower Hamlets First Clir's are worried about it.

Well done

Tower Hamlets are good at playing football .

PwC Tower Hamlets

I have heard that the report should be out this week but I have not been able to confirm that for sure. The residents of Tower Hamlets have waited long enough.

Co-working Tower Hamlets

To be honest I have no idea what to make of it really .

Blackwell toll

Not likely to be popular in Tower Hamlets .

School visits

Ofsted is now taking a keen interest in visiting Tower Hamlets schools .

Service cuts to children's services

It is disgraceful that Tower Hamlets are cutting children's services whilst spending money on lawsuits and anything else that Mayor Rahman fancies like his car .

Shame on you Rahman

Rahman has no time for angry residents of Tower Hamlets. This is the same man who asked his party members to walk out of a council meeting as they did not like his waste of money for lawsuits been discussed. The man is arrogant and he has no shame. The residents of Tower Hamlets deserve better. There is time for Gaza but not this .

Hate preacher arrested

I think I may have missed this as I don't recall writing about this. It seems that a hate preacher has been arrested in Tower Hamlets .

RT on school raid

It's a bit late but RT are now reporting on the Tower Hamlets extremist school raid .

Solve some crime

Maybe the Deputy Borough Commander for Tower Hamlets can solve some crimes. There is a lot of it which has been ignored. Electoral fraud allegations for one .

Ripper chips

This is one of the few places left from the time of Jack the Ripper. He would not be able to tell today's Tower Hamlets from his time .

Blacksmith

I had no idea that we had a blacksmith in Tower Hamlets.

The real Rabina Khan

People of Tower Hamlets have a right to know who the real Rabina Khan is .

A bit late

This article is a bit late as this school raid in Tower Hamlets was covered by the Guardian a few days ago. It's good to see the Mail covering Tower Hamlets though .

Tower Hamlets, grants, wards, money

Mark Baynes has done a wonderful thing examining the data about Tower Hamlets and how grant money is spent. It is well worth a read. I am no expert but Baynes has a number of questions for Tower Hamlets.

Missed this

Even though this is old and I should have put it up sometime ago it shows how Tower Hamlets operates .

Lib Dems Conference

The Liberal Democrats Conference is been held in Glasgow. Where is the Tower Hamlets First one?

Rahman on Conservative conference

I was not going to post this. I don't agree or disagree with everything he says but it is more the tone of the article. He has a right to a fair comment but the way that the article is written reminds of the way that politics is conducted in Tower Hamlets .

School raid

This is the sort of thing that happens in Tower Hamlets now .

Eid donation

I live in Tower Hamlets and I have seen the dangers of religion. This is a good place to make your Eid donation to .

Brave women

They are indeed brave launching a book in Tower Hamlets which is becoming more and more religiously conservative it feels like now .

Youth fair

Tower Hamlets needs more things like this .

Rahman the game is up

The Mayor of Tower Hamlets does not seem to realise that his luck has ran out and the game is up .

Trojan horse

If Tower Hamlets denies it than in my experience it must be true or near to it .

Cabinet meeting

I wonder what is going to happen at Tower Hamlets cabinet meeting tonight?
