@newhamgreens.bsky.social strongly believe the fund must be protected from complicity in the genocide taking place in Gaza. This publication is the transparency residents and fund members deserve. This in no way contradicts the fiduciary duty the Pensions committee has to ensure sound investment.

It’s inexplicable that it took six months to publish the information after the Pension Committee was promised it, and my questions during that time were stonewalled too. That’s after it took months to answer my demands for justification for it not being published.

Together Greens and NIP chair all the scrutiny committees. We also chair pensions and most other committees – and between Greens and NIP, we have a majority on every single committee. Yes, Labour got vice chair of council – that’s it – NIP call this an “unholy alliance” with Labour for some reason…

Greens have chair of council – for the first time in history our meetings won’t be stage-managed by Labour – we will treat all elected councillors fairly. NIP have chair of overview and scrutiny, probably the most powerful role besides the Labour mayor (who was directly elected by residents).

A graphic outlining three things the government could do to make things better: 1. Introduce rent controls - make rents more affordable and give tenants more security in their homes. 2. Introduce a wealth tax - Tax the top 1% to tackle growing inequality and help fund out public services better. 3. Bring water back into public ownership - stop profiteering from our waters, public ownership equals cheaper bills
