A report to the council’s Scrutiny Committee this week has revealed requests for information made by local residents on a controversial housing scheme were cleared by Labour politicians before being sent out.

Following a meeting with representatives of the Mary Feilding Guild on Friday (12th March 2021), Highgate Liberal Democrats have expressed their continued concern over the future for current residents and care home provision on the site.

Labour councillors have admitted they failed to have a clear process to protect taxpayers' money after it emerged yesterday that nearly £1 million of debt had to be written off following the failure of two projects.

Liberal Democrat plans to target more funding at the borough’s covid-ravaged high streets and cultural offerings through a “Community and Cultural Transformation Fund” were unanimously voted down by Labour councillors at last night's Budget Full Council.

Haringey has had its planning powers curbed after failing to hit its housing target - despite the goal having been reduced due to the pandemic. The Council only managed to build 60% of the required homes over the three year measuring period. 

Haringey has once again found itself in the middle of controversy around its children's services, as a coroner, Mary Hassell, gave her verdict on the death of two month old Lily-Mai Saint George in 2018.
