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...

    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa. 
    • How long is a piece of string? AI was a bit rubbish on this one, but Checatrade : average cost to paint a house exterior is around £30 per square metre So depends on the size, access, time to put up scaffolding and cost of hiring and building that, surface preparation, and quality of materials.   Checkatrade put it at £2.5 k for average semi, that sounds a little cheap.
    • Wow what a lot of reactionary stuff going on here.  Even by the high bar set by others on the EDF. So let's start with the title.  I thought wrong season for leaves on the pavement.  A bit late for ice, but it can still happen.  We all know about uneven pavements and tree roots.  Oh my word, perhaps Zombie apocalypse or sink holes.  Those damned Lime bikes?  But no, a four year old. The streets are rightly or wrongly full of kids scooting and cycling to schools in the morning.  Would or could a four year old cause a serious injury hitting an adult, perhaps but unlikely.  I'd rather a child on two wheels on the pavement than a car driving them to school. As said we are judging this on the original post.  We were not there.  We can not speculate. How this is victim (were you really a victim?) blaming, I don't know. How my response, similar to the previous two, is revolting, heavens knows. There is a serious conversation to be had about middle class parents.  My they can be annoying. And similarly for teenagers, adults, in particularly illegal ebikes including delivery riders, on the pavements, There are threads on the latter on here already.   But a four year old?  Really?? PS off to watch Newsnight and some more serious matters.
