Donald RoyThe projection has the #greens gaining control of no fewer than nine boroughs currently controlled by #labour . These are #brent , #greenwich , #hackney , #hammersmithandfulham , #hounslow , #lambeth , #lewisham , #walthamforest and #wandsworth . #labour retains control of two - #newham and #redbridge . Remaining boroughs are projected to be under no overall control. This would represent the weakest position for #labour in #london since the 1968 to 1971 period.

Sally JefferyThe team behind plans for East London’s first wild swimming pond has launched a petition to save the site from a government-backed development.
The East London Waterworks Park (ELWP) campaign has been made aware of the Department for Education’s intention to submit a planning application.
The government has said it intends to use the land to build a “secure facility for children”.

jreadesAn article falling primary school enrolments in London mentions Brexit, Covid, and falling birthrates but not, you know, housing (affordability and availability). Hardly surprising that #WalthamForest is one of the only ones to see growth: https://www.theguardian.com/education/2023/jan/12/primary-schools-in-london-may-need-to-merge-or-close-as-intakes-dwindle
