A busy day in Laycock with Heather Staff 🧡, starting with our councillor surgery, then visiting residents with casework and taking it up with Housing Associations, doing what we can to make Islington a more equal place. Thanks Cllr. Una O'Halloran and Dr John Woolf for your support 🌹🌹


Busy two days out chatting to neighbours in Tollington and picking up on issues we can help on as the local Islington Labour 🌹 #OnYourSide councillor team. If you are a tollington resident and want to raise an issue do get in touch at [email protected]

We're onto questions from members of the public - first up about housing and disrepair companies. Dr John Woolf replying that the council has reported one firm and is monitoring cases so that so that firms can be reported as necessary 🏠#islingtonlabour

Question on housing associations and increased service charges to Dr John Woolf - he answers that charges must comply with the legal regulations, and increases shouldn't go above the cost of services. But get in touch if needed: our Labour-run council will tackle the bad actors!

That's a wrap on public questions - we're now onto Members questions. First one Gary Heather to Dr John Woolf highlighting the 42 new council homes nearing completion on the Andover Estate. Cllr Woolf talks about opportunities for garage/undercroft conversions and tackling ASB🏠


Private renting leaves too many in shocking conditions, paying thousands to landlords each month. Labour is thankfully strengthening renters’ rights and fixing the broken system. Proud to speak in favour of our Islington Labour 🌹 #OnYourSide motion at #IslingtonFC last week:



I wrote to Islington Tribune about tackling housing fraud which has enabled us to reclaim 155 council homes. Recently, I increased the capacity of the team Islington Council .

The placement of Islamophobic stickers in Finsbury Park are appalling. We’re working with police to investigate and hold those responsible to account. If you have any information, contact the police or Islington Council community safety team. #NoPlaceForHate #OnYourSide🌹
