A City for All Londoners



http://www.london.gov.uk/get-involved/have-your-say/all-consultations/city-all-londoners




Start date: 24 October 2016


End date: 11 December 2016



The Mayor, Sadiq Khan, has published a new vision for London: A City for All Londoners.


This document outlines the capital?s top challenges and opportunities across priority policy areas, as well as the changes that City Hall wants to deliver over the next four years.


We want people to tell us what they think about this document. So, over the next few weeks, we're inviting stakeholders, community and voluntary organisations, and Londoners to take part in workshops and discussions to shape City Hall policy.


There are three stages of consultation, outlined below. You can also tell us what you think throughout this process (from now until 11 December) by emailing [email protected].

Making sure ALL council tax is paid in would be a start....council tax arrears- then maybe councils might be able to afford to maintain services instead of blaming central government for shortfalls. All this posturing is a big waste of money- consultations ffs- the only beneficiaries are the consultants!

I know! That's dedicated work-avoidance for you!


In my defence I didn't start off counting until I got a few pages in and noticed I had seen Sadiq several times in different poses - Smiling Sadiq, Authoritative Sadiq, Concerned Sadiq, Happy Sadiq, Laughing Sadiq, In-charge Sadiq, etc.


I do think he missed an opportunity though - no Holding a Baby Sadiq pic.

Just the 3 involving a bus. Two of him stood in front of a bus brandishing a 2 journeys for the price of 1 leaflet and one of him on a bus brandishing an Oyster card.


You are correct about his Dad - as Sadiq explains in his Foreword to the brochure, his dad was indeed a bus driver in London.

Yes, I think I vaguely recall a rumour along those lines. I guess he doesn't like to talk about his background much.

Given he mentions it the forward of the brochure, saying he doesn't like to talk about it seems a bit off the mark...

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
