TOWER HAMLETS COUNCILLORS: what are they like? The hot topic in the Borough is the decision of Executive Mayor John Biggs to impose new contracts (“Tower Rewards”) on the Council workforce. Do Labour Councillors back him or not? Ten councillors have signed an open letter asking him to think again. Thirty-one have not. It’s time we got to know our councillors a bit better, so this month we’ll be sharing some quotes from Labour’s public representatives.
“Ayas Miah.” Cllr Ayas Miah, St Dunstans.
Cllr Miah does not tweet much. In two years he has managed a handful of re-tweets and just one statement – an announced that Labour Party members in his ward back Rushanara Ali MP. But those two words quoted above are important ones: he wrote them at the bottom of the councillors’ open letter asking John Biggs to reconsider on the Tower Rewards issue.
