💀#ElimEstate
@LeathermktJMB's casual disaster planned for *unrepresented residents* have 31 compelling/knock-out objections from those residents & neighbours. The app MUST be refused -but this is @lb_southwark where communities are systemically ignored/abused & 🚘 trump 🌳 & 🫁/

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark Listen to this resident's plaintive plea: 'As a resident of #ElimEstate I am unhappy w the proposed size & location of the new developments [&] firmly opposed to the loss of open space & mature trees which will have a knock on effect to local ecology & residential health.' 🚮🌍

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark The problem is not only the broad failure to engage in real, proper, commonsensical recognisable consultation & then to respond to in in @lb_southwark from Heygate on but also that *this is* consultation but THE LA & ITS COMMITTEE -EACH OF ITS MEMBERS- DON'T READ &/OR IGNORE IT🔥

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark Citizens of Southwark -exhausted, abused, wearied, baked! but tough as hell (right?)- have got to engage Councillors before any Planning meeting & ensure that they know & understand the issues & will respond accordingly.
How shall we all do that THIS TIME?
Pls act/write/call📢🌍

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark P.s. We don't know which Committee will be eagerly prepping to rubber stamp this yet. But the yesmen & -women who have brought demo, displacement, & massive developer-profits to Southwark denominate. WE NEED TO BE ACTIVE HERE; IT'S SERIOUS(ly corrupted)! JMB know that ofc!! Look:

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark That is a baked-in, whole unindependent YES to everything that any developer proposes to the Offset Committees. But they & other Committee members need to know the breadth, strength & depth of objections to this terrible, community- & climate-denying application fr admin chums📢

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark Lastly, @MayorofLondon has just announced £3 million to spend on canopy commitments to tackle over-heating & excess carbon while he is spending at least £3.4 million to reduce green space here, destroy 11 maturing trees & build a new road system vs residents clear objections 🪓💀

@LeathermktJMB @lb_southwark @MayorofLondon Pls unroll @threadreaderapp
