Southwark Lib Dems

Official: @SouthwarkGP and Southwark Liberal Democrats have formed a Joint Administration to run Southwark Council.

Together they will make Southwark more affordable, greener and safer, and fix housing for tenants and leaseholders.

Residents living in Messenger Court have been putting up with unacceptable service from Clarion for too long - local Lib Dem councillors are taking action:

Our Borough Action Plan - which sets out how we will deliver our ambition to be a more affordable, safer, and greener borough will be agreed later this month - tonight we put our principles into practice, with the main scrutiny committee looking at the draft.

The budget is a missed opportunity to resolve the financial pressures councils like Southwark are facing: a £102 million gap thanks to Labour's cuts.

It also won't touch the sides unless Labour pull the biggest lever it can to kickstart growth: a closer relationship with the EU

Southwark Council rejected the revised Borough Triangle scheme - which had its affordable housing slashed to 10%. But Sadiq Khan thinks he knows better than local people, and is over-riding control of the decision.
