Major Works at Russell House: Council continues to delay and our ignore requests for information

We caught up with Cllrs Ed Pitt Ford and Jim Glen at Russell House.

Our Pimlico Team have been working hard to lobby for the council to take responsibility for the portion of major works cost overruns that were caused by their delay. However, the Labour Cabinet Member for Housing is not keeping us all informed. At full council tomorrow, we'll be calling for action from Labour-led Westminster City Council.

Labour-run Council belatedly tries to distance itself from the Labour Government’s proposed planning reforms

Westminster Conservatives are delighted that the current Labour council has finally publicly agreed with the Conservative councillors’ position on Angela Rayner’s proposed planning reforms. This Labour Government has proposed completely removing local councillors from the decision-making process on almost all applications. Westminster Conservatives pointed out that this is undemocratic and could undermine public trust in planning decisions back in March.
