Did you hear that the undemocratically reselected Mayoral Candidate Mayor Rokshana Fiaz denied the previously permitted SNCF deputation their chance of a presentation to Cabinet with only 90 minutes notice on Tuesday 8th February? We were originally invited to opt between Zoom and in person attendance and opted for in person. However, I had Covid and another delegate could only guarantee Zoom attendance from his workplace due to managing a Covid-related crisis there too. But our Mayor changed her own rules last minute to require in person attendance, impossible for me and extremely difficult for the other delegate? 

Nevertheless, over 100 protesters, many with animal costumes and masks, attended a demo  outside the Cabinet meeting at Newham Town Hall and sang a protest song, “Newham Council closed our farm, EIEIO…”

Please do go on this platform to make your views known on the Beckton Parks’ Masterplan including the farm site. You can read other people’s comments and ideas and comment on them too though voting on them is not possible until August 2022! That shows us how long we have to wait until they even think about improvements let alone carry any out!
