1/ Barnstorming speech by Clyde Loakes @Labourstone at #HealthyStreets2018 - ‘I have been a councillor for a long time, since I was 27…I’ve spent more time dabbling in bins than anyone should and I have the scars from looking into car parking schemes.’
2/ ‘I spent years talking about encouraging a shift to bikes and walking without actually doing the things that make a difference. If I am honest - I was tinkering with parking schemes and pandering to car owners. I was not delivering for our community.’
3/ ‘Then I got a chance to do something extraordinary. We won our Better Waltham Forest mini-Holland bid with low traffic neighbourhoods and protected bike lanes . We had signed up to deliver a huge public health implementation at pace.’
