Reasons for curry houses

In places like Tower Hamlets they just want cheap staff from Bangladesh, India or Pakistan .

Royal Mint eviction notice

The High Court has done the right thing. There are other lawful ways to make your protest .

Poo taboo

I can't see it going down very well with the uneducated in Tower Hamlets .

Transport funding

Reducing the speed limit in Tower Hamlets is a good idea .

Audit of Tower Hamlets accounts

I can't wait to see what Lutfur Rahman and his cronies did in Tower Hamlets during the 2013/14 financial year .

Newham house prices

How can it be more expensive than Tower Hamlets ?

Newham property prices

I would have expected it to be somewhere like Tower Hamlets .

Not as good as Cass

UEL is not as good as Cass which is based in Tower Hamlets but will sadly move out .

What kids got up to in schools

Some children from Tower Hamlets went to Syria .

Festive recycling

Good advice from Tower Hamlets. However they add to the rubbish by printing East End Life .

John Biggs and his promises

When Biggs was campaigning to be Mayor of Tower Hamlets (not much of a campaign) he made a number of promises. He promised a lot to the people of Tower Hamlets but he has not kept many of them .

50 years of service

This is the kind of thing which Tower Hamlets should be known for. Instead Tower Hmalets is known for corrupt politics .

Curry houses closing

This is an econmic fact. If they want more staff they should increase wages. No special treatment for them. Curry house owners got that under Lutfur Rahman in Tower Hamlets .

Wapping Conservatives newsletter

I was going to cover this newsletter before but too many other stories about Tower Hamlets got in the way .

Property guardianships

The whole thing is a disgrace and people are treated disgracefully. At least one Tower Hamlets employee stood up for the rights of the property guardians .

Aman Dalvi payoff

Ted Jeory has written a wonderful article which everyone in Tower Hamlets should read. It is amazing that a man who works in a politically restricted job can behave like this. It seems that Mark Seddon was really upset. Friends of Lutfur .

Aman Davli political meeting

I do not understand why such a senior manager in Tower Hamlets would attend what in effect is a political meeting for the surpporters of Lutfur Rahman ?

Not paying for quality

It is clear that Tower Hamlets is not paying for quality .

E-book sales

This article questions the notion that e-book sales are on the decline. In fact Tower Hamlets offers free e-books in it's libraries .

Newham wasting time

What is up with places like Newham and Tower Hamlets? They all like wasting time on things which they have no power over .

Muslim Brotherhood report

Tower Hamlets or organisations based in Tower Hamlets are mentioned in this report a lot .

East End Life staff

It seems that a lot of the stuff on East End Life is actually Tower Hamlets Council press releases written by junior staff .

Londonmet Alumni newsletter

You can read all the past issues including the current one which explains the reasons for Cass moving from Tower Hamlets .

Christmas rally

By Tower Hamlets standards it was a very good rally .

Free school expansion

Needed in Tower Hamlets to keep up with demand for places .

Community champions

Good to see some in Tower Hamlets .

Londonmet Alumni on Flickr

It is a shame we did not have Flickr when I graduated from Londonmet in 2003 .

Shiria Khatun

I don't know much about this Tower Hamlets elected member. However there are some serious questions people want answers to and I thought that I would FOI Tower Hamlets on their behalf .

Tragic death

Another tragic death on the roads of Tower Hamlets .

Adult courses at Tower Hamlets College

Take a look at them not sure if they are any good though .

Meet Amina Ali

A third rate Tower Hamlets Labour politican who blocked me for raising issues about Bradford West and a odd tweet about Somaliland .

Poplar fire

That part of Tower Hamlets is crowded. It could have killed a lot of people .

Cass protest

There is no point in this protest. Londonmet has made a difficult but right choice .

Low rent

This is amazing in the Tower Hamlets and Hackney area .

Excellent comment

The following is a excellent comment in the comments section . Lobby Fodder   3   2   Rate This Ted, welcome back. The left are just awful human beings. Now we see images of John Biggs outside the East London Mosque. People getting worked up about Trump’s comments. A shame they don’t come out more against ISIS in this way. The East London Mosque, funded by Saudi Arabia, is run by an extremist organisation called the Islamic Forum of Europe. They aim for the creation of a one world caliphate under the sharia. They were founded out of the political party Jamaat-e-Islami, who are now banned in Bangladesh. This group also opposed the very creation of Bangladesh. The East London Mosque has also hosted such characters as Anwar al-Awlaki, spiritual leader to the 911 hijackers. Several serving Tower Hamlets First councillors are IFE members. In 2010 Cllr. Abjol Miah enlisted the support of the IFE in creating the petition to force a referendum on creating

Jeory is back

We have the corruptly elected, rude Tower Hamlets Councilor Shahed Ali to thank for this .

The Cass Session

Buy The Cass Session and support London Metropolitan University art students in Tower Hamlets .

No shame

It seems that London City Airport have no shame. A bit like former Tower Hamlets Mayor Lutfur Rahman .

Ironic Muslim protest at Trump

This is a ironic protest because the East London Mosque and the IFE have supported former Tower Hamlets Mayor Lutfur Rahman. Racists protesting about a racist. Most of the people there are honest good people but the East London Mosque is not good for the community .

Not Syria

It's good to see Bethnal Green Academy in the news for something other than sending girls to Syria .

School funding cuts

Not sure why he is bothering with Tower Hamlets. It is supposed to be a Labour area .

QMW Islamic Society follow up

The Mail has done a follow up to the story about QMW. Tower Hamlets has got too many extremists .

QMW Islamic Society suspended

Good news for QMW and the wider Tower Hamlets community .

Student protests at Londonmet

I have been a supporter of London Metropolitan University. I am sad to see it leave City and Tower Hamlets but it has no choice. The students need to wake up to reality .

No news on Shahed Ali

It is remarkable that there is no news on the arrest of corrupt Tower Hamlets Councilor Shahed Ali. I only found out fron Ted Jeory.

Old news

This is old news and Tower Hamlets has moved on with exciting developments .

Shop Small Saturday

John Biggs the Mayor of Tower Hamlets should know better than to sing the praises of Whitechapel. It is a dumping ground for rubbish .

Library reopens

Can Tower Hamlets afford this ?

Buskers and cashless society

Thankfully there are not too many of them in Tower Hamlets. They make too much noise .

More police at transport hubs

A lot more police in places like Tower Hamlets. The British Transport Police is supposed to be for the whole of the train system excluding Northern Ireland .

Class War in Ripper Museum protest

We don't need Class War turing up in Tower Hamlets. Things need to calm down now .

Police chief questioned

Tower Hamlets Commander faces questions from young people .

Stupid Islamic Society

They are as stupid as Lutfur Rahman supporters in Tower Hamlets to be recorded in public .

Good for MyBnk

Good on them. I can give them some tips on saving money. Poeple in Tower Hamlets should be more careful with their money .

Man charged with arson

He went quite far from Tower Hamlets to Barking .

Jam trip

At least they did not bring back illegals like kids from another Tower Hamlets primary school .

Government threatened Londonmet

I am surprised that in his efforts to stop Londonment moving to Holloway. New Tower Hamlets head Will Tuckley has not used this .

Fitzpatrick backs Syria bombing

At least one MP in Tower Hamlets has guts .

New alumni network

Anyone who went to school or college in Tower Hamlets can join .

Tower Hamlets most opposed to war in Syria

I hope that for once Jim Fitzpatrick and Rushanra Ali ignore the people of Tower Hamlets and vote to bomb Syria. The reason is that a lot of people in Tower Hamlets are told what to think by the mosques .

Limehouse pub future

Tower Hamlets history and charm is sadly disappearing .

Will Lutfur pay up?

I can't see Lutfur Rahman the former corrupt Mayor of Tower Hamlets paying up .

Edith Ramsay

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

Traffic congestion

The best thing to do is to get people out of cars in places like Tower Hamlets and make them do deliveries at different times .

Carols at Crisp Street

I wonder what the extremist community in Tower Hamlets feel about this ?

Murder probe

Police in Tower Hamlets have not given much detail .

NATO ships

Tower Hamlets is not even near Russia .

Hira Islam

Why are IFE heavy hitters like Hira Islam every allowed to work for Tower Hamlets Council in the first place ?

Museum vigil

I doubt if many people in Tower Hamlets noticed it .

Biggs and Sanders on education funding

It's nice to see a united front as there were rumours that Sanders wants to be Tower Hamlets Mayor in 2018 .

Church protests outside Ripper Museum

Sadly for the churches taking part it is a bit late and everyone in Tower Hamlets has moved on .

Canary Wharf security

It is a very attractive area for terrorists but one of the most secure areas in Tower Hamlets if not the whole of London .

Biggs writes letter

Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs is writing a letter to the Chancellor a letter which will be ignored. Biggs goes on about vital services yet he has a massive communications team and a newspaper which will be published every 2 weeks. He can save money and put it in vital services by scrapping East End Life .

Green Khan

Sadiq Khan must be worried about Zac Goldsmith. Looking at places like Tower Hamlets he better be .

Families in B&Bs

The number of Tower Hamlets families in B&Bs doubles in a year .

Scrap East End Life

Chris Chapman of Tower Hamlets Conservatives is right. East End Life is a waste of money. Tower Hamlets residents are not stupid enough to believe anything in that paper . 

Boris trees

I hope that schools in Tower Hamlets sign up for this .

Self defence

Some of the men in Tower Hamlets need self defence from the women .

Lutfur and the money tree

A modern version of Jack and the Beanstalk would involve the disgraced former Mayor of Tower Hamlets .

East End Life staff

Let's see who in Tower Hamlets writes for it .

Barts helping East London

It can help places like Tower Hamlets by providing better health care .

Terror victims

We have had too much terrorism in Tower Hamlets and the areas nearby .

Lutfur bankrupt

The Wharf is now reporting on the former corrupt Mayor of Tower Hamlets been declared bankrupt .

Good use of police resources

Well done Tower Hamlets Metropolitan Police. You can't investigate voting fraud but you can investigate fly tipping .

Housing design winner

Who would have thought that a place in Whitechapel which is one of the biggest dumps in Tower Hamlets could win this ?

Read press release

Before people judge the sad move by Londonmet to leave Tower Hamlets and the City of London they should read this .

Tower Hamlets College future

The Wharf has a article on the future of Tower Hamlets College a place which I once hated but now have come to like .

Tower Hamlets Chief on Londonmet

I don't want London Metropolitan University to leave Tower Hamlets but he is wasting his time .

Cage and Tower Hamlets

There is a lot of mention of Tower Hamlets in this article .

Attacking Bishopsgate

The Mayors of Tower Hamlets and Hackney are taking it head on .

East London Mosque on Paris attacks

The East London Mosque has links with extremists including the IFE lot which ruled Tower Hamlets under Lutfur Rahman. To be fair it is part of the non violent extremist movement .

Shadow march in Brick Lane

I hope that they did not eat any of the food in Brick Lane .

Pipe and Biggs against Bishopsgate

Hackney Mayor Jules Pipe and Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs are to speak against the Bishopsgate development .

Spiders close schools

Two Tower Hamlets primary schools have been forced to close in the dump known as Whitechapel .

Bishopsgate march

Let's hope that this march is helpful to the people of Tower Hamlets and Hackney .

Tower Hamlets cricket

I did not know that there were no grass cricket pitches in Tower Hamlets .

Updated FoI

A lot has changed in relation to Londonmet. It used to be a university which had it's head office in the City and a lot of teaching in Tower Hamlets .

Locals and development rights

Sadly in Tower Hamlets when it comes to development the people who live here don't have many rights .

City Airport exapnsion

Bad news for people in Newham and parts of Tower Hamlets .

Raising money for Whitechapel

Tower Hamlets Council is raising money for the new public dump .

Increasing donations for Londonmet

I am disappointed with the news that Londonmet my old alumni will be leaving Tower Hamlets. It seems that North London have taken over and Guildhall have lost. I still believe in it and I want to help it survive and grow .

New college

Tower Hamlets, Redbridge and Hackney could create a very big college .

Lutfur pantomime

We should have a Lutfur pantomime in Tower Hamlets town hall .

Well done

Serving the people of Tower Hamlets for 50 years .

Can Newham handle this?

Tower Hamlets is already having difficulties with all the new people moving in .

Biggs outspoken

That is a new one as the Mayor of Tower Hamlets does not have much to say and is always late to jump on a bandwagon .

Tragic love story

Sadly a lot of people in Tower Hamlets would be disgusted by this story .

Campaign website

People who want to save Bishopsgate Goodsyard have launched a campaign website .

Bishopsgate Goodsyard

Is that in Tower Hamlets or not ?

Whitechapel palace

The new Tower Hamlets town hall will not be a palace outside as Whitechapel is a public dump .

Foetus found in Tower Hamlets

This is such a sad story for everyone involved .

Tower Hamlets grants

Grants were one of the main reaons for the fall of King Lutfur in Tower Hamlets. I will wait to see with interest what happens in this. Once again grants are playing a big part in Tower Hamlets politics .

New town hall for Tower Hamlets

Now at least Tower Hamlets councilors can look at the rubbish in Whitechapel .

Helping the homeless

Tower Hamlets communications team have provided a actual helpful article. Still too many people work there and it needs to be cut down .

A good cause

The people of Tower Hamlets should support those poor animals if they can .

Tower Hamlets MPs expenses

As a resident of Tower Hamlets I would not vote for either of them but I see nothing wrong in what is written in the article .

TB in Tower Hamlets

Health experts are calling for action as Tower Hamlets is one of the worst areas for TB in London .

Communications future

This is a meeting that I will not be attending as I have already had my say on the future of communications in Tower Hamlets via email .

Meet Kelly Powell

It is about time the people of Tower Hamlets met Kelly Powell. She is head of media and acting deputy head of communications .

Press officers writing for East End Lies

I have got my copy of East End Life which is also known as East End Lies and it seems that press officers including Stefan Swift who told me on the phone that after he realised I was a member of the public and not press that he only dealt with press and refused to even give me his last name or the name of his manager are now writing for it. Note they are not even noted as press officers just their names are published.

Tower Hamlets wasting money

Did Tower Hamlets really waste this much money ?

Halloween let donw

In Tower Hamlets like every year this year children did not come to our door. What is even more disappointing is that Lutfur Rahman, his corruptly elected councilors or their supporters did not try to scare people.

Tower Hamets on Facebook

I had no idea that Tower Hamlets Council was on Facebook. Mind you for Tower Hamlets it is another place to ignore people. They follow me on Twitter but can't answer any questions .

Commissioners to remain in place

The reporting of Tower Hamlets in the media has not mentioned that .

East End Life team

I find it hard to believe that East End Life has such a small team producing it. Tower Hamlets communications team refuse to answer any of my emails so I can't really ask them. I might FoI them later but can't be bothered to do it now.

Helen Watson and the NUJ

Serious questions about editor of Tower Hamlets leading rubbish East End Lies .

FoI press statement

Tower Hamlets Council have turned an FoI release into a press statement. I have contacted the ICO as I am not happy with the internal review. It is worth a laugh .

Biggs in control

John Biggs is now fully in control of Tower Hamlets .

New East End Lies editor

I was not aware until today that the great Helen Watson had become editor of East End Life (also known as Lies). A interesting article about her and Tower Hamlets .

Not getting East End Lies

I have never been a fan of that rubbish but as a resident of Tower Hamlets I have a right to get it? Tower Hamlets may not do anything about it though .

Disgraceful East Thames

It is a disgrace that people in Tower Hamlets are been treated like this .

Tower Hamlets property prices

Property prices in Tower Hamlets are crazy .

Tower Hamlets removes dangerous toys

It's good to see that Tower Hamlets Trading Standards have taken action against the importer of those toys .

East London Mosque

After what happened in Newham we need to control the East London Mosque and it's expansion plans in Tower Hamlets .

Claire Perry at Farringdon

She should have come to Whitechapel and seen the state of women's rights in Tower Hamlets .

Isle of Dogs Mass

I wonder what the extremists in Tower Hamlets think about this ?

Clocks go back

This article is wrong we get one hour extra to sleep. In Tower Hamlets a lot of the people learn this at the Mosque .

Britain's best open space

Even after what Tower Hamlets Council have done it can still win the award as Britain's best open space. Well done Victoria Park .

Last post

Unless Love Wapping posts something before tomorrow this maybe the last post. Love Wapping has done a lot for Tower Hamlets. It will be missed .

New homes

Is Tower Hamlets going to have enough space for any new homes? Building work in Tower Hamlets is crazy .

Muslims and gays

Very interesting calls on LBC. I am not interested in the woman. I am interested in Sohail and I would like to know more about his group. He is brave standing outside Whitechapel Tube Station which is near the extremist East London Mosque. I have lived in Tower Hamlets for decades and I would not do that .

Love Wapping is closing

This is a sad day in Tower Hamlets. Love Wapping has been very effective in challenging Lutfur and his associates .

Good GCSE grades

Tower Hamets may have good grades but it also has problems with potential extremism in it's schools .

Corrupt politicans on Palestine

It does no favours to the casue of Palestine to be associating with corrupt and racist politicans in Tower Hamlets. I have been a supporter of the Palestinian cause but they should not asssociate with people like Rabina Khan .

Not just a footnote

Lutfur Rahman is more important than a footnote in history. He used racism in the place that stopped the BUF at Cable Street. Lutfur will be a key figure in Tower Hamlets history .

God Delusion Bengali translator's blog

This man will not be welcome in Tower Hamlets. He has nevertheless done a wonderful job for atheism .

God Delusion in Bengali

This will be very useful in Tower Hamlets .

Lutfur Rahman on page 15

Ted Jeory spotted that former corrupt Tower Hamlets Mayor Lutfur Rahman is on page 15. Must be upset not to be on page 1 .

A bit like Tower Hamlets

The Guardian behaved in a very fair way in Tower Hamlets . Another article on Faith to Faithless this time by the wonderful Nick Cohen who has a lot of things to say about Tower Hamlets in other articles . Shame that this is not happening in the UK Tower Hamlets could do with it .

Lucky man

Mile End is one of the safest stations in Tower Hamlets .

Islam and free debate

The Guardian has a very interesting article which reminds me a bit of Tower Hamlets . There is a article countering that argument which can be seen on the side of the page. Faith to Faithless is brave to do anything in QMW which is in Tower Hamlets home of the extremist East London Mosque and IFE.

Deprivation in Tower Hamlets

New research which shows some interesting data on deprivation in Tower Hamlets for the young and old .

Tower Hamlets Coding Club

Too late it's now China .

Lutfur could rejoin Labour

According to Private Eye (sorry no link) Ken Livingstone and his associates including Unite chief of staff are working hard to bring people in Lutfur's team and eventually Lutfur Rahman back into Labour. I say we don't need this corrupt people back in Tower Hamlets Labour.

Ripper museum update

Nice to see Tower Hamlets Mayor Biggs wasting time on pointless things which he can't change. The Mayors Response Becky Warnock via Campaigns by You Today at 7:22 PM To ahai11london@yahoo.co.uk Hi all Thought I should forward you all the next response from John Bigg, the mayor of Tower Hamlets.  Disappointing, but time to regroup and increase pressure- especially with the increased press coverage on the museum. Any thoughts or ideas on next steps are most welcome! In the mean time keep sharing the petition - more signatures can never be a bad thing! Over 8500 names so far! https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/celebrate-suffragettes-not-serial-killers Thanks Becky Dear Petitioners, Further to my email below and following your meeting on the 9 th  of September, the Mayor agreed to discuss with the planning and legal teams the points raised by you in the meeting and set out in Christine

Tower Hamlets cuts

I know this costs Tower Hamlets money but I can't get information any other way .

Peter Golds on police

He mentions Tower Hamlets in this article and a lot of other interesting things .

Bulk waste fee scrapped

Where is Tower Hamlets getting money for this? They are consulting people on cuts .

Tower Hamlets cuts

This is a list which has been drawn up by Tower Hamlets Council and some things are on it and some not on it. Anyway I have contacted them telling them they should cut Cabinet members and Mayors office .

Have your say on East End Life

I have made no secret about my dislike of East End Life. I have told that to Tower Hamlets Council. I found out about this by accident .

Total waste of money

Something needs to be done. Tower Hamlets Council should either tear it down or sell it off. The Whitechapel Vision is a joke by corrupt former Tower Hamlets Mayor Lutfur Rahman .

Future Isle of Dogs and Canary Wharf

In the future it could be argued that the whole of Tower Hamlets might look the same .

Former Muslins in Tower Hamlets

I wonder what they are going through and if Tower Hamlets Council has any policies on this? Somehow I doubt it .

Housing ideas

Tower Hamlets and the rest of London need some housing ideas .

Too much building

The problem in Tower Hamlets is that there is too much building on any space they can find .

LGBT awards

It's a shame that Peter Golds has not won. He is a local Tower Hamlets hero .

Oktoberfest

I had no idea that we celebrated it in Tower Hamlets let alone how popular it is .

Biggs on housing policy

I am not a big fan of the latest Cameron housing policy. What does the Mayor of Tower Hamlets want to do ?

Islamic schools in Tower Hamlets

It is amazing that those schools were not closed. They are a blight on T ower Hamlets . I also note that two of them are run by East London Mosque which is a very transparent organisaiton. They blocked me for asking questions. Any news about those schools please contact me.

Rabina Khan tweets

One of the good things about Tower Hamlets Council and the fools who work there was that in the corrupt old days they were breaking the rules without any shame. They used to promote Rabina Khan all the time. Now not even a single tweet about her.

Roman Road could win national award

It is good to see that another market in Tower Hamlets besides that public dumping ground Whitechapel be considered for a national award .

Good candidates

Two very good charities in Tower Hamlets trying to win the grant .

Tower Hamlets schools extremism risks

Does anyone know if Bridge was inspecting any schools in Tower Hamlets ? What is the current state of Sir John Cass ? If you have any other inoformation on anything related to this please contact me.

Poverty decline in East London

Once Tower Hamlets, Hackney and Newham used to be very poor areas now they are very rich .

Men and life expectancy

Men in Tower Hamlets have the shortest life expectancy in London .

Death threats too far

I share some of the views of the protestors about Tower Hamlets. However damaging property and death threats are not the way to sort out Tower Hamlets .

Poverty decline

It's a bit of a shame really as Tower Hamlets was always known along with places like Hackney as always a poor area. I used to be proud of that fact .

100 wasted days

Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs promised a lot but has not delivered very much. He won because people did not want Rabina Khan as Mayor .

Police struggle with burglaries

Useless Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs is commenting on things even if he has nothing to add .

Internal joke

This internal review is a joke even by Tower Hamlets standards. It should have been handled by either the monitoring officer or the head of legal services. Also the officer who dealt with it does not seem to be legally qualified .

Krays cousin death

Surely there must be more news in Tower Hamlets ?

Less confident

Testing makes people less confident in understanding genetics .

Nothing new

Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs late again .

Very fast response

Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs has responded to this nearly one and a half years later .

Luxury cars

Once no one would consider setting this up in Tower Hamlets .

Not good for poor

The poor can't afford to live in places like Tower Hamlets anymore .

Tower Hamlets fire

Surprised the fire did not spread through the whole of Tower Hamlets as it is one big building site .

Rich Mix

I can't see any serious questions been asked about Rich Mix and Tower Hamlets . I have asked serious questions and they want to talk to me .

Tesco to benefit Tower Hamlets

Tesco grants could benefit Tower Hamlets.

Ripper museum shut down

I can tell you one thing long after they have gone the museum will still be in Tower Hamlet s.

Drone concern

London City Airport is in a busy part of London. I can hear the planes from my part of Tower Hamlets .

Meaningless award

A lot of those awards have become meangingless after all Rabina Khan won hero of the year. Also Tower Hamlets Homes is very gay friendly to it's staff but it has unhappy residents .

Bangladeshi blogger murders

This episode of Our World did not mention Tower Hamlets or East London Mosque .

John S. Williams pay reduction

I have had some dealings with John S. Williams and by Tower Hamlets standard for a senior manager he seems to be decent. I have alwayls felt that he should have resigned the post of Returning Officer. Tower Hamlets is a rotten borough and many more should take pay cuts. I will mention a few including the legal team. The useless communications team which had the sole job of promoting Lutfur Rahman and later Rabina Khan. The staff who counted the votes. I could go on but you get the message .

Share unwanted food

This app allows you to share unwanted food. There is a lot of that in Tower Hamlets but also poor people who need food .

Local play

Good to see a play based on a disabled Tower Hamlets resident .

Rich Mix and 106 money

Can someone please tell me what is section 106 money? It is odd that Tower Hamlets are giving money than taking back money .

Food waste

Some people live in poverty in Tower Hamlets this seems like a good idea to give food to people who need it .

Fast car

We have enough trouble with fast cars in Tower Hamlets .

Biggs on police cuts

I would like to hear the Mayor of Tower Hamlets on rubbish, fraud and lazy staff at Tower Hamlets .

Rich Mix and Tower Hamlets

As I have published before Jane Earl CEO of Rich Mix is happy to speak to me but they are not happy to discuss things on Twitter. Tower Hamlets Council and Mayor Biggs have ignored my tweets so I have filed an FoI request .

Inside Ripper museum

Everyone has a view on the new museum in Whitechapel including Tower Hamlets Mayor but few have been inside it. It is expensive though . 

Chapman for GLA

It is good that they have chosen a Tower Hamlets Clir. Tower Hamlets has a very good Conservative team .

Property

Places like Tower Hamlets will become really expensive .

Tower Hamlets EMA to continue

It is a waste of money and the money could be spent on things like cleaning the streets of Tower Hamlets .

Life in Dhaka

It is interesting to compare life in Dhaka and Tower Hamlets. Most of the Bengali people in Tower Hamlets are from Sylhet and not Dhaka .

Poplar bridge fall

I was not aware of this happening in Tower Hamlets .

Local one

I can't find my local practice in Tower Hamlets to donate to .

Bring Old Flo home

Good idea but a lot of people in Tower Hamlets will not appreciate it for example Lutfur Rahman .

Hidden gems

If Tower Hamlets owned them Lutfur would have sold them to his friends .

More refugees

Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs wants more refugees but he has not thought of the problems they would cause .

Biggs and Ripper Museum

The Mayor of Tower Hamlets and the museum have had a falling out. The idea of the museum closing down is daft .

A British export

It seems that besides electoral fraud in Tower Hamlets there is another problem with the British Bangladeshi community .

Indian fashion brand

It's coming to Tower Hamlets .

East End Lies not good enough

East End Lies (everyone calls it that) should be shut down totally. No one in Tower Hamlets reads this rubbish .

Good on Andy

Good on Andy for starting this. People in Tower Hamlets have many questions which have not been answered .

"Faith healer" killed

I don't know much about this in Tower Hamlets .

Rich Mix email

I have a very intersting email from Jane Earl at Rich Mix. Before reading the email you may want to read this article . Dear Mr Hai Thanks for getting in touch and apologies for the slow reply but I've been out of the country for the weekend Denise Jones is a member of our Board in a personal capacity. We have two Councillors who are formally nominated by LBTH each year but as Denise is not one of those two we don't style her in that way I'd be delighted to talk further to you on the phone if helpful - my best number is 07766602725 - or to meet you over a coffee as I'm always keen to get feedback from local residents Do hope this is helpful, and that I will have the chance to meet you soon With best wishes Jane Earl Sent from my iPhone

Plaque for Island Gardens founder

He deserves a plaque. Hopefully Tower Hamlets will never give one to Lutfur Rahman .

Neighbourhood policing

I know that we have them in Tower Hamlets but I have never seen one .

Shared ownership

I hope that this is good for Tower Hamlets .

Knife in park

I would have expected a lot more in Tower Hamlets .

Corbyn wins

The big question for the people of Tower Hamlets is what happens to Lutfur Rahman and his associates in Tower Hamlets now. Do they rejoin Labour ?

Rich Mix

Mayor John Biggs and Tower Hamlets Council have some serious questions to answer about Rich Mix .

Rabina Khan election leaflets

Tower Hamlets Homes were kind enough to provide me with a response .

Pointless public meeting

The Green Party have got to reaslise that Barts have financial problems and they are sitting on a fortune. They will sell it to the highest bidder and that bidder will add more apartments which the people of Tower Hamlets can't afford .

More refugees

John Biggs wants more refugees but places like Tower Hamlets are full .

Robbani expenses

Let's see what Tower Hamlets did with this corruptly elected Clir .

Victims association

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

Greenwich fraud

Chances are the fraud in Greenwich is nothing compared to Tower Hamlets .

Hate crime

I agree with everything the Mayor of Tower Hamlets has to say. What about hate crimes by Lutfur Rahman and his supporters in Tower Hamlets and further afield .

Good neighbour

We still have some good neighbours in Tower Hamlets .

One Housing and openness

It is a disgrace the way that One Housing is acting and well done to Peter Golds for exposing. He is the voice of reason in Tower Hamlets .

Guardian on Biggs election

I may have missed this whilst covering the Tower Hamlets Mayoral election .

Missing in Essex

This Tower Hamlets woman could be missing in Essex .

Yacht race

I had no idea that this was happening in Tower Hamlets .

Island Gardens 120 years

Mayor John Biggs will be there. Personally I think it should be Peter Golds he has done a lot for the community. One of the finest politicans in Tower Hamlets .

Oceam redevelopment

Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs visits it. What does he do all day ?

Further election court

Conrad Catalan is asking more difficult questions of Tower Hamlets Council. Good on him .

Hajj and camels

Tower Hamlets wasting money on this .

Bow sex attack

Muslim gang in Shadwell

I am no big fan of Shadwell. Personally to me it is the most undesireable part of Tower Hamlets. However I don't believe it is a religious thing. It is just locals causing trouble. The Mail have put two and two together and come up with five .

Peter Golds for City Hall

I personally feel that now John Biggs is Mayor of Tower Hamlets and wont be running for City and East London again than Peter Golds should run for it.

Lutfur legal circus

The legal circus by the former disgraced corrupt Mayor of Tower Hamlets Lutfur Rahman continues. He has got 2 human rights lawyers. What about the rights of the people of Tower Hamlet s?

This is a very important document for Tower Hamlets. The Constitution is essentially the rules governing Tower Hamlets. Not many have read it though. Nor have I .

Mela and the Commissioners

The fake alcohol seller Curry King of Brick Lane has written a letter threatening to sue Peter Golds. He should try reading the documents on Tower Hamlets Council website .

Another sign that Tower Hamlets is going upmarket. They have moved into 60 Commercial Road which used to be the old Jobcentre .

Students Unions

All elections to them should be contested by political parties with a manifesto. This will avoid people not knowing about them.

Where in Tower Hamlets will she end up ?

Don't get the joke

I am not getting the joke about Tower Hamlets from this article .

Course guides

I have seen so many of them at the Idea Stores. It is a waste of money when you can get them online. Tower Hamlets needs to save money not waste it .

I wonder if Newham is actually serious about listening to people? Tower Hamlets should do the same. I hope it is not a con and wasting people's time and public money .

Star visit

It's nice for children in Tower Hamlets to have a star visit .

Wont work

The ideas of Jim Fitzpatrick will not work. As I have said in my last post we need democracy. The best way is to elect people and possilby have a area housing board. I used the example of Tower Hamlets Homes in my last post. Personally I would like to see a area like Tower Hamlets have an elected housing board along with elected housing associations .

Democracy and housing

Democracy is alive and well in the social housing sector. The residents of Tower Hamlets Homes have no say on members of the board. It would have been better if there was an election contested by political parties . The Leaseholders Association also needs more democracy and more professionalism as the site is out of date . All residents associations should have direct elections to them contested by political parties . In short we need more democracy in social housing as well as associations which aim to look after leaseholders and tenants.

Biggs and Rich Mix

There are serious points about Rich Mix for Tower Hamlets but that clown Oli Rahman should not be making them. He is a disgrace to Tower Hamlets and should not be in office .

This is the kind of nonesense people write about Tower Hamlets .

Muslim Charity Run FoI

This is a serious issue and Tower Hamlets should not have allowed Victoria Park to be used for this event .

Rahman financial ruin

It could not happen to a nicer man than the former Mayor of Tower Hamlets. He can only spend £500 a week. This is nothing compared to how much of Tower Hamlets taxpayers money he spent as Mayor .

Tube strike

All the other forms of public transport will be busy. Luckily we have a lot of forms of public transport in Tower Hamlets. The only things we lack are ferries and trams .

Masterplan on hold

It's good that the masterplan has been put on hold but let's see what actually comes out of it. Tower Hamlets has become a place where anything is built anywhere regardless of the impact on Tower Hamlets .

Biggs a disappointment

I gave my second pref for the Mayorship of Tower Hamlets to John Biggs and I feel a bit disappointed after reading this article. Tower Hamlets needs to see what Biggs said been carried out .

The greed of Eastend Homes

What they are doing to the children is disgraceful. Eastend Homes are just concerned with money and not about the people of Tower Hamlets .

Tower Hamlets and the artist

As I have said earlier I support Tower Hamlets against this artist. I am very rarely a supporter of Tower Hamlets .

Bethnal Green girls update

The Telegraph has a long article on them . Meanwhile the Guardian claims that two of them are married . Interesting read both of those stories and a warning to the people of Tower Hamlets.

Tower Hamlets gold mine

I don't know whether it will benefit Tower Hamlets or not but I am concerned that the council could be looking at money when it ought to look at other things like the best interests of the local people .

Lowest death rate in Britain

Tower Hamlets has the lowest death rate in Britain. I hope it does not go up now with the new Mayor and the dead not been able to vote .

Good on Tower Hamlets

People reading this blog will know that I am not a fan of Tower Hamlets but at least they are taking a stand against this so called artist .

Rainbow Playgroup

It is disgraceful what Eastend Homes (not sure of the actual spelling) is doing to them. Hopefully the new Mayor of Tower Hamlets John Biggs can do something to support them .

LGBT hero

There is really one person who has done a lot for LGBT rights along with the rights of everyone else in Tower Hamlets and that is Peter Golds, OBE, CBE .

New Tower Hamlets homes

Good to see that there are new homes in Tower Hamlets. I have not heard of the man who opened them though .

Waste of money

The Royal London which mainly serves Tower Hamlets should spend it's money on services for the people of Tower Hamlets rather than free food for people who are not patients .

Rich Mix and Tower Hamlets

It seems that new Tower Hamlets Mayor John Biggs is been reasonable and the dispute between Rich Mix and Tower Hamlets looks likely it is going to be sorted .
