Sadiq Khan has long said that local leaders know best how to run their authorities - so will he stick by this principle, or seek to overrule councils he disagrees with like Enfield, asks @alexgeorgiou
Enfield Council has been identified as working with a private company relocating homeless families hundreds of miles away from Enfield.
Payments of up to £2mn have been made to Reloc8
The new Council administration needs to end this practice immediately

‘It’s autocracy, not democracy’.
Enfield residents voted for a council that would protect the green belt from new town plans.

It would be sacrilege to build all over #CrewsHill it’s a beautiful part of #Enfield many of us have been going for decades. It’s all on Greenbelt how on earth can the government proposed to knock it all down when it’s full of family businesses? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c232…

The contradictions in this one announcement are extraordinary.
Starmer will:
- take decisions on new towns in the national interest alone i.e over-riding councils like Enfield
while
- putting real power in the hands of local leaders, because those with skin in the game know best what their communities need. That is the right thing to do for communities

The overwhelming majority of people in Enfield voted against the New Town at Crews Hill and building on the Green Belt.
With many other brownfield sites available, this single issue could well see Labour lose all its MPs at the next General Election.

Messages between @FeryalClark and Mandelson have now been published.
It is important to recognise that Labour have more in common with the Epstein class than the working class.
Look forward to Labour losing Enfield North at the next election.
