Dear Ed... Boris Johnson saved �3 million scrapping Ken Livingstone’s propaganda sheet ‘The Londoner’. This enabled the new Mayor of London to spend the money saved on improving parks and planting 10,000 trees in our streets.
In Tower Hamlets, Mayor Lutfur Rahman (and Labour previously) spends �1.56 million a year on the propaganda sheet East End Life. I wonder what useful services he could free Tower Hamlets to provide, with the money saved, if he followed Boris’s lead.
