Muhammad Haque ethical commentary about ‘local’ elections in London and in the East End of London

By©Muhammad Haque 1925 Hrs GMT London Saturday 10 May 2008:-

After Louise Alexander’s resignation as a councillor for the Weavers ward in the East End Borough of Tower Hamlets Council cil.....

Tower HOPELESS Council is in a big mess.. It is in acute deficit... Dollops of cash injections by the corrupting regimes typified by the likes of the LDA have made no difference to the quality of service by the corporate bureaucratic local Tower Hamlets Council.....Although some newcomers, as ‘party political’ experimenters appearing - in all three, primary, senses of that word including PRETENDING - on the ‘local’s scene, are quite adept at stealing the community’s rights as well s some of our very own words and phrases - like ‘degeneration’ to mean the Council's ‘regeneration’ , without so much as acknowledging the true source or locus of the analysis, they are not making any impact on the electors.

Not in the way that they would ‘prefer’ to pretend!

They are clueless, as far as the voters and what the voters are bothered by...

The Lost Listers have shown contempt to the people in the borough over the past few years... How? By presumptuous parades of parasitical opportunism, little, petty, pocket-careerism.... All at the expense of the people in the Ward. In the borough.... They do not belong with the battling people on the estates.

Or with the people engaged in the struggle to keep their little spaces, hold to their little spaces where the ‘local’ corrupt Council is engaged in selling out to Big Business...........All across Tower Hamlets, the signs are writ large and clear: the Tories are poised for take over of a big chunk of this borough... or of what remains of the former Tower Hamlets...... In all senses of that phrase.... And although Weavers ward has not as yet seen a direct Tory arrival as a listed elected representative of the ward on the Council, it is only a matter of time before that does happen. In effect, if not in name.....
