#AndyBurnham's localism/devolution agenda crashes in its 2nd week.
In #BrickLane, #AngelaRayner overrules a unanimous decision by #TowerHamlets Council. She wants a data centre, not homes.
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/aug/04/brick-lane-redevelopment-approval-datacentre-london
It's a spectacularly bad call, combining so many elements of the UK's misgovernment: centralisation, data centres, housing shortage, disdain for South Asian communities, favouring big finance over ppl, resentment of a non-Labour council.
Yet again, Red Angie looks Tory Blue.

1/2🧵: If you are #London on Monday and hate #datacenters, go to the Save #Bricklane campaign. #AndyBurnham's government via #AngelaRayner just bypassed #TowerHamlets decision to oppose the project, talk about being a #devolution champion or an #environment champion in the city's longest #drought in 30 years!

I love the green and wild spaces in our neighbourhood. Mile End is one of the most densely populated wards in #TowerHamlets, and these spaces are, therefore, vital for our health and wellbeing. They need a lot of care and management, and I'm not afraid of getting stuck in.

I'm imagining Rich people in Canary Wharf having to hop over the big road to Tower Hamlets to pick up their Deliveroo orders, like they do for their cocaine....

"Regions where people most often reach 100-110 years old are the ones where there’s the most pressure to commit pension fraud, and they also have the worst records. For example, the best place to reach 105 in #England is #TowerHamlets."

#introduction
Hi everyone. Back during lockdown, @mdonkin created a petition (https://www.change.org/p/london-borough-of-tower-hamlets-rebuild-the-victoria-park-lido) to rebuild the Lido in Victoria Park. We now have a small organising committee (only three of us so far), and we’re working on turning the interest shown for the petition into action. Please follow us, share our updates and come to our public meetings.#VictoriaPark #TowerHamlets #London #EastLondon #Swimming #Fitness #OutdoorSwimming #Lido #Restoration #Heritage

I’ve been living in temporary accommodation since the start of the year. Our landlord is attempting to build additional floors on our building. In September, as part of the preparatory work, they damaged the roof, and my neighbours and I had water pouring into our homes.

I expect that despite the massive resources at The Met's disposal the next we'll hear of this is when a body with a crossbow turns up in the Thames.

Solidarity at the doorstep
Community activist groups can be a significant force in local politics, as experiences in both Haringey and Tower Hamlets show.
