Langsett - threated by Labour? |
Labour at the Town Hall are already beginning to turn their backs on
everything they used to say on council housing.
This is a bitter blow to everyone who voted Labour at the last election.
They promised to protect homes from demolition and keep the Council as
the landlord. They are now tipped to do a U-turn on both. Already they
have changed their mind on demolitions.
They have agreed to go ahead and knock down hundreds of properties. They
have turned their backs on the tenants' "not one brick" campaign
that they used to support.
And they have said that council house management needs to change. They
have refused to rule out changing tenants' landlord - something they
fiercely opposed only last year.
Already, tenants are saying that the Labour administration in the Town
Hall are "hypocrites and turncoats". They are saying that they
feel betrayed and let down by a party that promised anything to get
elected and knew that they couldn't deliver.
