Could it be that the "Left" is in a Coalition of its own and banking on the deal
so there can be loads propaganda for the Left, the Bank and the bankrupt Tower Hamlets Council

The Guardian said only 4 days ago:

" 57.7% of children in Tower Hamlets live in poverty, the highest rate in the UK. Of the £14.4bn shortfall in funding facing councils in England by 2020, it is the most deprived areas, like Tower Hamlets, that will be hardest hit"


The Guardian report is accessible here:

 http://www.guardian.co.uk/local-government-network/2013/jul/16/why-councils-should-get-behind-robin-hood-tax

the first paragraph reads:

"The skyscrapers of HSBC and Barclays dominate the skyline in the London borough of Tower Hamlets. They loom alongside Canary Wharf, a 50-storey monolith of financial might. The economic crisis may have started high up on those trading floors, but other than a few regulatory charges and fines, they haven't felt the effects. The UK's five biggest banks' core profits actually rose by 45% to £31.5bn in 2012."

Yet 4 days later, the Guardian has had to publish the following words describing pictures that it has published about "teenaged school children had hired super cars..."

“Supercars, schoolboys and stilettos in Tower Hamlets - in pictures
In Tower Hamlets, one of the most deprived parts of London according to government statistics, 16-year-old students are increasingly spending large sums of money to rent luxury cars for their National Record of Achievement ceremony. The teenagers, who are too young to drive, are chauffeured around the neighbourhood and attend the ceremony at school, often before spending a night on the town”

On hearing the news about Lamborghinis, Ferraris and even Bentleys
being hired by 16 year olds said to be from homes that are in the
most deprived boroughs in the country.

What do the teachers teach those teenagers?
What do the parents tell them about what is important?
What do the community leaders do?
Where did the teen aged boys and some girls get the idea that
they needed to show off and that the appropriate thing to do was by splashing out on renting such costly vehicles?
What had they learnt about poverty, dignity and solidarity?
What role model could they have followed in showing off on hired Mercedes cars
they reportedly rode on streets housing homes that all reports suggest are among the country’s most deprived and in financial struggle?
