Dozens of replacement trees planted on Aylesbury estate redevelopment earlier this year are now dead after not being watered.
We've been quiet for a while, but we are looking forward to this event which will bring our community together - the exact opposite of what the wasteful #HomesforLambeth (RIP) achieved!

Lambeth council claims 76% of people living at Central Hill estate are happy to have their homes demolished. If this were proved via a simple ballot, Lambeth would get funding from GLA. Lambeth refuses. Why would that be???
They say we're NIMBYs - like we're Lord Moneybags refusing to give up a sliver of our 1000 acre estate. But 33 of the 47 signers of the paper petition are council tenants (72 flat estate.) Please don't let them take our garden and tenants hall. change.org/priorycourt

What is happening to our neighbours? Surely Lambeth's Cabinet members have been applying much more rigour than Croydon's when reviewing the Homes for Lambeth plans and this couldn't possibly happen here!?insidecroydon.com/2020/10/23/sco… @PeoplesAudit @InsideCroydon
You could fit everyone in a car in this video into one of those double decker buses and have room to spare. Even with Corona restrictions it'd only take two buses. Too many cars, that's your problem. Time to reclaim the city. x.com/croydonstop/st…

HfL are not known for their attention to detail. Here presumably the 'regeneration' team have been part-demolished into a 'regeration' team. While you are here please share and add some comments to oppose the planning application! planning.lambeth.gov.uk/online-applica… Search for: 20/01480/FUL
Apparently one of these is the building proposed for Roman Rise, the other is a radar tower! We think both will look equally at home on the junction of Central Hill and Roman Rise when Homes for Lambeth have finished the estate some time after 2035. @savecentralhill
Colm Lacey states that 'this scheme cross-funds our successful transformation of Fairfield Halls' If it was successful shouldn't it have been financially viable and funded? We are just simple gnomes who like fishing! @InsideCroydon @brickbybrickldn wearebrickbybrick.com/news/virtual-c…
