MORE FROM H&F!

The Dame has a postbag awash with moans from H&F residents...it seems "Piggy" Cowan is not well-liked!

My Dear Dame,
We long suffering H &F residents will hope that you take the lash to H&F as you have successfully done with K&C.
I must put you right on a few things and bring to your attention to some of the shenanigans Cowan & Co get up to... 
Cllr 'Piggy' Cowan

Cowan is a Blairite.  
He and the rest of the H&F Labour front bench see themselves as the heirs to Blair.  




Corbynites aren't allowed anywhere near his Council Group - or indeed the Labour Association in Hammersmith.  
Despite a massive student body and young renting professionals in H&F, the local Momentum movement hasn't had a chance to pick up any, um...., momentum, in large part due to Labour Councillors and activists fighting them tooth and nail.
If you want bad governance in H&F, it isn't just charging (mainly non-Borough resident) motorists through their yellow box traffic cameras.  
Look at the complete failure of transparency on the plans for the Hammersmith Bridge, or the complicated (dare we say dodgy?) finances of the town hall redevelopment.  
Or indeed the £15k a year Piggy gets paid (qua council leader) for sitting in the board of the old oak / hs2 redevelopment scheme, which has failed to make any meaningful progress in the 6 years he's been involved.

The broader problem with Cowan is that he loves to posture  as this great progressive, but its all meaningless gestures. One such was designating one of their councillors (yet to be announced which) as an H&F Brexit czar responsible for stopping Brexit! 
Definitely council time (and money?) well spent.......

Yours most sincerely

xxxxxxxx

    The Dame has done great work in K&C and before she pops her clogs she should turn on Hammersmith & Fulham

  2. Perhaps, Cowan should advise Corbyn on Brexit Strategy and on General Election plans. My spies tell me that Dent Coad is advising Corbyn on these issues which is why it is a mess.
