officers of the Authority in decision making which in turn risks replicating the

and/or failed in the Authority’s Best Value Duty.

I honestly hope they get rid of him.
Previously convicted by corruption, the council is an absolute dumpster fire with a collapse of all the services.
The only reason he got elected is because the majority of residents in Tower Hamlets are bengalis/Pakistanis/from India and Luftur ethnicity is similar.
This really makes me question democracy, how stupid do you have to be to vote for someone convicted of corruption?
The corrupt mayor of tower hamlets Luftwaffe Ramen would never conduct shady business!
about time
Very good. Awful cunt.
No way! This is shocking and completely unpredictable news!
