LOLA – LEAVE OUR LOOS ALONE!

The draft budget from the Green Administration of Brighton and Hove City Council is proposing to close 9 public toilets and reducing the level of attendance at 6 others. The Labour Group has launched a campaign, LOLA (Leave our Loos Alone), with the support of Hilary Benn MP (Shadow Secretary for Communities and Local Government). Toilets are a basic public service and are essential for parents of young children, older people, and people with medical conditions such as crohns and colitis.

We are hoping to present a signed petition at a Council Meeting on Thursday 26th January, so please sign our e-petition http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/lola-leave-our-loos-alone.html, and show the Green Administration that Public Loos are there for a purpose and need to continue to be provided.

In addition we are also supporting a campaign by local busineses and traders against the over 100% increase in Business parking permit and trader costs. These rises will damage small businesses and be bad for the local economy. The petition can be found at on the Brighton & Hove Council website.

Can I urge you to sign both petition and pass it on to friends and neighbours.

With thanks for your support

    Are the Greens divided in Lewes

    Its a simple enough question, with a lead Green Councillor: Matt Kent leaving the Green Party fold to become an independent.  We have to ask why he felt the need to leave after being committed to the green cause.  What would so put him off, what would divide the Greens.  In Lewes they seem to have a habit of losing councillors or people leaving. Perhaps they will offer some transparency on these matters? Matt has his own web site that [...]

    There is no place like home

     You may have heard the news that under this Tory-led Government, there has been a 17% increase in the number of families losing their homes. These aren’t just dry statistics – they are real families facing homelessness.  The Government must change course, stop cutting too far and too fast and come up with a Plan B for the economy – before more people lose their homes. Help us send that message by signing the petition
