LET US DECIDE - the case for council housing (Liverpool has 21,000 remaining)

LET US DECIDE (from Guardian 29th June 2004)Tenants have the right to affordable, secure housing that is provided by the council - not private companies
Tenants all round Britain are intent on defending council housing against a government dogmatically committed to privatisation. Decent, affordable, secure and accountable housing provided by the local council has served generations well. And contrary to myth, it pays for itself - if all the money it brings in is reinvested. In Camden, my rent for a three bedroom flat is £85 per week. In the wake of the right to buy policy, the same flats go for over £250,000. Many are now owned by private management companies who rent them out for £300 a week. Housing Association rents in Camden are much higher than the council; and they have an appalling record on repairs and how they treat tenants.

30-07-2004 14:45
The Iraqi resistance is legitimate and will eventually expell the U.S. if it is properly supported by the world's progressive movement. We must do all that we can to prevent any NATO support for the "U.S. mission." Please do everything possible in your home countries to prevent such a move by NATO. The article below makes clear that the U.S. plan to gain the support for it’s failing “mission “ is still underway. Don’t let them succeed. Urge no support of any kind, military, economic, diplomatic, etc for the U.S. in Iraq. Please spread this message widely. Peace. jamiefreedom of speech 1 zionist lobby 0

Terrorists Shoot at Family of Nine - and MissFarnborough Airport Consultative Committee – July 2004
30-07-2004 13:43
Farnborough Airport is the business airport for Europe, a key component of globalisation. Farnborough recently hosted the biennial Farnborough International Airshow, the world's biggest arms fair.FACC, is the consultative committee for Farnborough Airport. It should consist of one third each: airport operator and users, local councils, local community. But due to the manner in which it was unlawfully established, local councils are over represented and the local community severely under represented. Farnborough has never been officially designated by the Secretary of State and thus the committee is not covered by the relevant legislation, but the committee operates as though this were true, or is supposed to. It meets three times a year: March, July, November.
Farnborough Airport Consultative Committee (FACC) met Thursday afternoon 29 July 2004 in the conference suite at BAE Systems headquarters in Farnborough.
