Home care the #Lambeth way
1. Pay contractor £40K to replace roof
2. Pay another contractor to visit 4 years later when roof leaks
3. Add costs onto leaseholder and tenants bills
4. Don't bother chasing original contractor for money
5. Repeat

I'm dealing with a couple of real @lambeth_council horror stories at the moment but noone from the council in the housing team seems to be responding.

The Nazi Party explicitly banned the song ‘The Lambeth Walk’ for being inconsistent with their worldview, but the truth was simply that Hitler couldn’t pronounce ‘Lambeth’.

One party councils provide worse value for money – a loss of £2.6billion to the taxpayer every year in the UK-according to the Electoral Reform Society &amp; Research for Action. Vote https://greenparty.org.uk - the largest opposition party in Lambeth &amp; let’s get real change!

Given the scale of the problems in #Lambeth don't you think you need a much larger venue?

Lambethans rejoice, at least for now. That awful proposal for a 20 story carbuncle in the middle of Brixton has been withdrawn. #London #Brixton #Architecture #Lambeth https://www.london.gov.uk/programmes-strategies/planning/planning-applications-and-decisions/public-hearings/popes-road-public-hearing

It’s quite clear there is no grip on housing. Of course it hasn’t helped that for decades, the one-party state administration has been running council homes into the ground-preparing the way for developers-riding rough-shod over communities. Stop voting for failure #Lambeth https://n.respublicae.eu/peoplesaudit/status/1678613012804935680

We walked from Sydenham to Brockwell Park during lockdown. We lazily take the train to HH nowadays. The secret garden is a very special place so I guess we should keep it secret - ooops!

If only relatively rich #Bromley had taken as much care of our own Crystal Palace Park as cash strapped #Lambeth does for Brockwell....

For all #Lambeth residents interested in the impact events on our commons and open land have, you may be interested in hearing the public inquiry for festival republic on Clapham Common here: https://eventlambeth.co.uk/clapham-common-common-land-consent-application-2/

It starts again at 1pm, but there is a link to all the papers

Come on people of #Lambeth. The rest of the country have been voting green; 22% of you in Lambeth at the last local elections voted Green. There is an alternative and it is @Lambethgp. Stop letting the old parties get away with taking you for granted! Get in touch. Become a cllr!

Total failure of councils to protect residents already struggling with the #CostOfLiving. Residents in #Lambeth left a scrutiny meeting last night angry & with their questions unanswered. Households with communal heating facing 350% rise in energy costs https://t.ly/SLz4

I am sorry to break the news to #Lambeth council, but not only there’s a #coronation happening tomorrow but #queenelizabeth is long dead. I have reasons to believe that dignitaries who are delivering #British #citizenship to “forriners” would probably fail their #LifeintheUK test because you have no idea what hoops one has to jump through for the privilege of pledging allegiance!

This administration really needs to get a grip!
