Houses Not Olympics

February 14, 2005 · Posted in Uncategorized

The Olympic Committee are visiting London this week. On Thursday they will be in Newham visiting Stratford and the Lower Lea Valley, center of the proposed site. I wonder if they will visit a few of the many Bed and Breakfast Hostels littering the Borough of Newham. If they did they would see the dire need for housing now and the complete disregard most residents have for lots of tourists and egotistic sportsmen in five years time.

Perhaps a little protest at Stratford Station on Thursday afternoon would help them understand the dire needs this borough has and how focusing on the Olympics is distracting the local authorities from what they need to urgently do.
