What this article doesn't say is that a new dealer will replace this one & often the supply becomes more violent after police operations like this.

Councils like Hackney are being asked to deliver more with less every single year, while the cost of living continues to rise.
This budget must be a turning point & must address inequality.
I've written to the Chancellor outlining what Hackney needs.

Building of no affordable homes started in Hackney since April.
We need more government funding & must transform a broken housing market dominated by a cartel of greedy developers, which is bankrupting councils, inflating land values and making desperately needed social housing harder to build.

Thank you to everyone at the Faith Tabernacle Chruch of God (Dalston) for such a moving divine worship. A wonderful community. Was so special to spend the time together. Still thinking of those waiting to hear from family in Jamaica. 💚🇯🇲

Heartbreaking & infuriating email to receive from a resident trying to get a repair sorted for his mother-in-law. This isn't how services should operate or make people feel.

Queen’s Market in Upton Park isn’t just a place to shop, it’s where community happens 💚
We can’t afford to lose spaces like this to another round of “development.” If we want to invest in this city, we need to invest in its people and protect spaces like these, not build more unaffordable towers.

1/4 UK 2024 drug overdose death statistics were released today and AGAIN the numbers have gone up. Alarmingly, there was a 400% rise in deaths due to nitazenes. The harm reduction community has been warning that a nitazene crisis is coming but gov't is still blocking overdose prevention measures.
