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.
“I have done some urgently needed shopping for a covid 19 affected family, for a little thing they have appreciated it a lot, and also I have been identifyin and referring vulnerable residents to the Council, they are finding this very helpful.”
Cllr Rajib Ahmed, Lansbury ward, Facebook, 1st May 2020
