Blairite Haringey Council 'All Ears' To Rich Property Developers

For those of you who thought that the Blairite zombie rump of Haringey councillors who have been deselected would depart the scene of history with their tails between their legs, then think again!

Although many arch Blairites have either been defeated in the candidate selection for May 2018’s elections, or decided not to stand again, they seem to be hell bent on lining the pockets of as many private developers as possible before they hang up their pens.

Not content with getting into bed with multinational union blacklisters Lend Lease in the notorious Haringey Development Vehicle (HDV) scheme, Haringey council has given the go ahead to the aptly named FEC (Far East Consortium) to redevelop the historic Hornsey Town Hall.

This will now be turned into, yes you’ve guessed it... luxury flats! 146 flats are due to be built on the site but only eleven have been designated as “affordable”.
