Petition updateJeremy Corbyn: please mediate the Sheffield trees crisis.Sheffield Council 'would consider ending PFI contract'. Maybe. Perhaps. Sometime.

Latest from The Yorkshire Post. Jeremy Corbyn may or may not be willing to intervene in the face of this announcement; he may feel able to issue a statement supporting the move to an 'in-house' service along Labour party policy lines. However, an 'in-house' service may not be the panacea that people make out; often these services are as unmanageable as a private contract in their use of 'arm's length management'. It would not guarantee that felling of healthy trees would stop; the council could say that protests would be unreasonable as they are no longer in league with a company doing it 'for profit'. That's one to watch.
